[libc][NFC] fix uint128 init in float properties

[michaelrj-google]

An unsigned integer was being initialized with -1 to set all its bits to
1, but this doesn't work for the BigInt class which may be used as an
integer type on systems that don't support uint128 natively. This patch
moves the initialization to use ~T(0) instead.

Appeared in #75063 (comment).

Thx for the quick fix @michaelrj-google !
