Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Remove float compare option from sincosf

PREFER_FLOAT_COMPARISON setting was not correct as it could raise
spurious exceptions.  Fixing it is easy: just use ISLESS(x, y) instead
of abstop12(x) < abstop12(y) with appropriate non-signaling definition
for ISLESS.  However it seems this setting is not very useful (there is
only minor performance difference on various architectures), so remove
this option for now.
