[Ada] Document a few more characteristics of floating-point support

gcc/ada/

	* doc/gnat_rm/implementation_defined_characteristics.rst (3.5.7):
	Mention the IEEE standard explicitly.  Use current format names.
	Document assumed rounding mode and new features of I/O support.
	* gnat_rm.texi: Regenerate.
