Algorithm: Let `x = (-1)^s * 2^e * (1 + m)`.
- Step 1: Range reduction: reduce the exponent with:
```
  y = cbrt(x) = (-1)^s * 2^(floor(e/3)) * 2^((e % 3)/3) * (1 + m)^(1/3)
```
- Step 2: Use the first 4 bit fractional bits of `m` to look up for a
degree-7 polynomial approximation to:
```
  (1 + m)^(1/3) ~ 1 + m * P(m).
```
- Step 3: Perform the multiplication:
```
  2^((e % 3)/3) * (1 + m)^(1/3).
```
- Step 4: Check for exact cases to prevent rounding and clear
`FE_INEXACT` floating point exception.
- Step 5: Combine with the exponent and sign before converting down to
`float` and return.</content>
