  As Jakub mentioned in the PR, because many numbers have multiple
possible representations, we can't reliably return true here.

I'll commit this if tests pass.

I wonder if its worth even handling decimal floats in frange, since
there's a lot of things we can't represent.  I suppose even though we
could never propagate an actual value with VRP, we could fold
conditionals (symbolic and stuff outside ranges, etc) ??.  

Thoughts?

	PR middle-end/106831

gcc/ChangeLog:

	* value-range.cc (frange::singleton_p): Return false for
	DECIMAL_FLOAT_TYPE_P.

The exact details (7, 192) are dependent on the format, for
decimal64 it is (16, 768) and for decimal128 (34, 12288).

Final version of the patch.  Disable frange for DECIMAL_FLOAT_MODE_P altogether.

Tested on x86-64 Linux with regstrap as well as mpfr tests.
