Subject: [PATCH v8 06/10] math.h: Add macros for rounding to closest value

Add below rounding related macros:

round_closest_up(x, y) : Rounds x to closest multiple of y where y is a
power of 2, with a preference to round up in case two nearest values are
possible.

round_closest_down(x, y) : Rounds x to closest multiple of y where y is a
power of 2, with a preference to round down in case two nearest values are
possible.

roundclosest(x, y) : Rounds x to closest multiple of y, this macro should
generally be used only when y is not multiple of 2 as otherwise
round_closest* macros should be used which are much faster.

Examples:
 * round_closest_up(17, 4) = 16
 * round_closest_up(15, 4) = 16
 * round_closest_up(14, 4) = 16
 * round_closest_down(17, 4) = 16
 * round_closest_down(15, 4) = 16
 * round_closest_down(14, 4) = 12
 * roundclosest(21, 5) = 20
 * roundclosest(19, 5) = 20
 * roundclosest(17, 5) = 15

NOTE: This patch is inspired from the Mentor Graphics IPU driver [1]
which uses similar macro locally and which is updated in further patch
in the series to use this generic macro instead along with other drivers
having similar requirements.

https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.8.9/source/drivers/gpu/ipu-v3/ipu-image-convert.c#L480

V8:
- Add new macro to round to nearest value for non-multiple of 2
- Update commit message as suggested

V1->V6 (No change, patch introduced in V7)
