[patch, fortran] Simplify (-1.0)**i

Hello world,

the attached patch replaces (-1.0)**i with (in C language)
(i & 1) == 0 ? 1.0 : 1.0, see PR 57073.

I tried doing it in the middle end, see the PR of where these
approaches failed.  So, rather than not doing the optimization
at all, I would rather do it in the Fortran front end.

If somebody jumps in with a middle-end solution that works, I
would withdraw this patch.

Regression-tested on trunk.  OK?

	Thomas
