gallivm: don't calculate square root of rho if we use accurate rho method
While a sqrt here and there shouldn't hurt much (depending on the cpu) it is possible to completely omit it since rho is only used for calculating lod and there log2(x) == 0.5*log2(x^2). Depending on the exact path taken for calculating lod this means we get a simple mul instead of sqrt (in case of nearest mip filter in fact we don't need to replace the sqrt with something else at all), only in some not very useful path this doesn't work (combined brilinear calculation of int level and fractional lod, accurate rho calc but brilinear filtering seems odd). Apart from being faster as an added bonus this should increase our crappy fractional accuracy of lod, since fast_log2 is only good for ~3bits and this should increase accuracy by one bit (though not used if dimension is just one as we'd need an extra mul there as we never had the squared rho in the first place). v2: use separate ilog2_sqrt function if we have squared rho.
