vm_vector_2_matrix was improperly guarded against bad parameters. In the
case I encountered the uvec was the negative of fvec which produced a
null vector when the cross product of the two vector was constructed.
These changes should fix that bug by ignoring the uvec parameter. Since
vm_vector_2_matrix and vm_vector_2_matrix_norm are basically the same, I
converted the former into an alias of the latter and only fixed that
code.
The routine vm_vec_normalize_quick_mag() did not normalize a vector.
Instead of dividing the vector by the 'quick magnitude', it multiplied
it. This routine was only called by one other routine (which was
fortunately unused)--vm_vec_normalized_dir_quick_mag().
Given both the incorrect behavior as well as their lack of use, those
routines have been removed.

Uses fl_abs() (which evaluates to fabsf()) instead of an if-else
statement to get the absolute value of a float. A compiler for the
x86 platform is able use SSE instructions to optimize calls to fabsf().

Replaces calls to double-precision floating point trig functions with
calls to single-precision floating point trig functions as follows:
cos() -> cosf()
sin() -> sinf()
tan() -> tanf()
acos() -> acosf()
asin() -> asinf()
atan() -> atanf()
This allows the compiler to avoid generating unnecessary instructions
that convert a float to a double and then a double back to a float.

Instead of performing three consecutive divisions, vm_vec_avg_n() now performs
one division at the start and three multiplications at the end. Recall that
multiplication is faster than division.

The routine atan2_safe() already contains a test that checks if both parameters
are zero--that is the point of the routine. Thus, there is no need for the
caller of atan2_safe() to perform that same check.

The routine vm_vec_normalize() always returns a value greater than zero.
Thus, there is no need to test its return value for values that are less
than or equal to zero.

Not only is the routine vm_fvec_matrix_interpolate() unused, it does not appear
to have been used for the duration of the project. The only reference to it
found in the history was in a removed comment. That comment indicated that it
was implemented in 1997.

Changes the file mode bits of vecmat.h and vecmat.cpp to make them consistent
with the other files under "code/math".
