This isn't a direct backport of https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/60640/changes because because
llvm.powi.f16.i32is very broken on LLVM 18 (at least for targets without hardware fp16 support like x86).This is only a performance backport, but it is a pretty important regression that was introduced in 1.12.
