Cherry Zhang cf148f3d46 cmd/compile, runtime: use ABI-aware function converting float to interface
Currently, when converting a float (say float64), we use convT64
function. In the runtime convT64 expects a uint64 argument. In
the compiler, convT64 is defined as taking an "any" argument (so
it works with also uint64-like types such as [1]uint64). The "any"
type is instantiated with the concrete type in walk. So the
backend will see instances such as convT64([1]uint64).

Currently, float64 is treated as uint64-like. So the backend will
see convT64(float64). With a memory-based calling convention this
is fine. With a register-based calling convention, however, it
will pass the argument in a floating point register, whereas the
runtime expects the argument in an integer register (as it is
declared as uint64).

To fix this, this CL introduces runtime functions convT32F and
convT64F. They behave the same as convT32/convT64, but with a
float argument. In the compiler, use convT32F/convT64F to convert
float-like type to interface.

With this, "GOEXPERIMENT=regabi,regabiargs go test math fmt"
works.

Updates #40724.
