If the input to float*_scalbn() is denormal then it represents
a number 0.[mantissabits] * 2^(1-exponentbias) (and the actual
exponent field is all zeroes). This means that when we convert
it to our unpacked encoding the unpacked exponent must be one
greater than for a normal number, which represen
