New experimental port of math/libquadmath

(In reply to Dimitry Andric from comment #3)
Do you only need the header, or is the whole library required?

The Gcc libquadmath is released under LGPL 2.1
I do no think that it should be in base, but it is easy to get it in our ports
tree: please see the attached patch.

Remarks:
- this is not a perfect solution, because some Gcc compiler is needed to build
it, but no problem if only the header is requested;

- a distfile from the GitHub mirror is used, but we could take a released
tarball directly from GNU, or even build our own smaller tarball with only the
minimum bits.

Is this sufficient to enable the support of float128 in the port devel/llvm10?
