RFR: 8358179: Performance regression in Math.cbrt [v2]

[Mohamed Issa]

> The changes described below are meant to resolve the performance regression introduced by the **x86_64 cbrt** double precision floating point scalar intrinsic in #24470.
> 
> 1. Check for +0, -0, +INF, -INF, and NaN before any other input values.
> 2. If these special values are found, return immediately with minimal modifications to the result register.
> 
> The commands to run all relevant micro-benchmarks are posted below.
> 
> `make test TEST="micro:CbrtPerf.CbrtPerfRanges"`
> `make test TEST="micro:CbrtPerf.CbrtPerfSpecialValues"`
> 
> The results of all tests posted below were captured with an [Intel® Xeon 8488C](https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/231730/intel-xeon-platinum-8480c-processor-105m-cache-2-00-ghz/specifications.html) using [OpenJDK v26-b1](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/releases/tag/jdk-26%2B1) as the baseline version. The term _baseline1_ refers to runs with the intrinsic enabled and _baseline2_ refers to runs with the intrinsic disabled.
> 
> Each result is the mean of 8 individual runs, and the input ranges used match those from the original Java implementation. Overall, the changes provide a significant uplift over _baseline1_ except for a mild regression in the (**2^(-1022) <= |x| < INF**) input range, which is expected due to the extra checks. When comparing against _baseline2_, the modified intrinsic significantly still outperforms for the inputs (**-INF < x < INF**) that require heavy compute. However, the special value inputs that trigger fast path returns still perform better with _baseline2_.
