feat: add math/base/special/fast/gelu-quick

[AryanSharma48]

Part of #15575

Description

What is the purpose of this pull request?

This pull request:

• adds @stdlib/math/base/special/fast/gelu-quick to evaluate the Gaussian Error Linear Unit (GELU) activation function using a quick 1.702 approximation.
• implements the formulation using @stdlib/math/base/special/expit to avoid overflow and prevent numerical instability in the negative tail.
• includes a native C implementation and Node-API bindings with fallback to pure JavaScript.
• handles IEEE 754 edge cases including signed zeros, NaN, and ±Infinity.
• includes unit tests with ULP tolerance assertions, C and JS benchmarks, usage examples, TypeScript declarations, and documentation.
