Latest compilers are able to figure out that whole code can be optmized
away when CFLAGS has -O2 or more agressive optimizations. In order to
ensure the test is doing the right thing, make the variables global so
compiler is not able to optimize it away.

This fixes build on x86 especially when using clang compiler

+Subject: [PATCH] test-float: Make variables global
+
+Latest clang ( clang 16+ ) is able to optimize everything out when -O2 is used 
and as
+a result build succeeds and test output comes out to be wrong. Therefore
+make the variables global, so clang does not optimize away the functions
+
+Upstream-Status: Backport
