The code in the backend is very simple; it's currently a placeholder so we just 
need to register it. It's softmath so there's no code to generate. The 
complexity will be in compiler-rt, for those softmath routines.

The backend currently assumes that the sign bit is the MSB of the softened 
type, so there's gonna be a little change.
