math: Update atanh implementation based on FreeBSD for improved accuracy and efficiency
This pull request updates the hyperbolic arctangent (atanh) function in the math/base/special module. The changes are inspired by the FreeBSD implementation, aiming to improve accuracy and efficiency.
Key changes:
The updated function maintains the existing API while providing more reliable results across a wider range of inputs. Performance impact is expected to be minimal, with potential improvements for certain input ranges.
Implementation details:
Testing:
This update addresses the concerns raised in issue #2089 and should provide a more robust implementation of the atanh function for stdlib users.
I welcome any feedback or suggestions for further improvements.
