    a: __m128h,
    b: __m128h,
) -> __m128h

Normalize the mantissas of the lower half-precision (16-bit) floating-point element in b, store the result in the lower element of dst, and copy the upper 7 packed elements from a to the upper elements of dst. This intrinsic essentially calculates ±(2^k)*|x.significand|, where k depends on the interval range defined by norm and the sign depends on sign and the source sign.

The mantissa is normalized to the interval specified by interv, which can take the following values:

_MM_MANT_NORM_1_2     // interval [1, 2)
_MM_MANT_NORM_p5_2    // interval [0.5, 2)
_MM_MANT_NORM_p5_1    // interval [0.5, 1)
_MM_MANT_NORM_p75_1p5 // interval [0.75, 1.5)

The sign is determined by sc which can take the following values:

_MM_MANT_SIGN_src     // sign = sign(src)
_MM_MANT_SIGN_zero    // sign = 0
_MM_MANT_SIGN_nan     // dst = NaN if sign(src) = 1
