Many cleanups of redundant code in mpd_qrem_near():

  1) _mpd_qdivmod() uses the context precision only in two places, and
     the new code should be exactly equivalent to the previous code.

  2) Remove misleading comment.

  3) The quotient *is* an integer with exponent 0, so calling mpd_qtrunc()
     is pointless.

  4) Replace two instances of identical code by a single one.

  5) Use _mpd_cmp_abs() instead of mpd_cmp_total_mag(): the operands
     are not special.

  6) Don't clear MPD_Rounded in the status (with the current code it should
     not be set within the function).
