Description: use _Float16 only when SSE2 is enabled
The GCC documentation [1] says: “On x86 targets with SSE2 enabled, GCC
supports half-precision (16-bit) floating point via the _Float16 type”.
.
On non-SSE2 x86 (such as Debian i386 baseline [2]), __FLT16_MAX__ is
defined starting with GCC 14 [3], however any non-trivial use of the
_Float16 type results in an error:
.
error: operation not permitted on type _Float16 without option -msse2
.
which makes some packages fail to build on i386 architecture [4].
