That's a little disappointing.
IMHO, C23 should have added optional types _Binary32, _Binary64,
_Binary128 and _Binary256 that designate their IEEE-754 namesakes.
Plus, a mandatory requirement that if compiler supports any of IEEE-754
binary types then they have to be accessible by above-mentioned names.
