Add XMVectorRound half away from zero alternative #39

@walbourn

Description

@walbourn

The current XMVectorRound uses round-to-nearest (even) a.k.a. banker's rounding. This matches the implementation of the _mm_round_ps (SSE4) and vrndnq_f32 (ARMv8 NEON) intrinsics rounding behavior, so it can be implemented in a single instruction.

Many users, however, expect it to match roundf which C99 defines as handling half-way values by rounding away from zero a.k.a. commercial rounding. It might therefore be useful to provide an alternative version of XMVectorRound that supports half away-from-zero rounding instead of round-to-nearest (even).
