Printing floating point number in decimal is inconvenient for humans.
Verbose asm output will print out floating point values in comments, it
helps.
But in lots of cases, users still need additional work to covert the
decimal back to hex or binary to check the bit patterns,
especially when there are small precision difference.
Hexadecimal form is one of the supported form in LLVM IR, and easier for
debugging.
This patch try to print all FP constant in hex form instead.

Currently we have a number of tests that fail with -verify-machineinstrs.
To detect this cases earlier we add the option to the testcases with the
exception of tests that will currently fail with this option. PR 27456 keeps
track of this failures.
No code review, as discussed with Hal Finkel.
