F8: 8-bit floats

⚠️ Not for production use!

F8 is a toy software floating-point math library. It provides an 8-bit floating point type F8, with 5 mantissa bits, 3 exponent bits, and no sign bit. The format used resembles IEEE 754 binary formats but stripped down to the bare necessities: the only special value supported is zero.
