Extension of the `bfloat16` type to support round-nearest-to-even. This improves precision for some of the test cases. 

How to test? 


 HAT=SHOW_CODE java -cp hat/job.jar hat.java test ffi-cuda hat.test.TestBFloat16Type

 HAT=SHOW_CODE java -cp hat/job.jar hat.java test ffi-opencl hat.test.TestBFloat16Type


This patch has been checked for MacOS (opencl-only) and Linux (OpenCL and CUDA).

Thank @jddarcy for the advise on this.
