/**
* Computes the arithmetic mean of a single-precision floating-point strided array, ignoring `NaN` values, using Welford's algorithm with extended accumulation, and returning an extended precision result.
*
* ## Method
*
* -   This implementation uses Welford's algorithm for efficient computation, which can be derived as follows
*
*     ```tex
*     \begin{align*}
*     \mu_n &= \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=0}^{n-1} x_i \\
*           &= \frac{1}{n} \biggl(x_{n-1} + \sum_{i=0}^{n-2} x_i \biggr) \\
*           &= \frac{1}{n} (x_{n-1} + (n-1)\mu_{n-1}) \\
*           &= \mu_{n-1} + \frac{1}{n} (x_{n-1} - \mu_{n-1})
*     \end{align*}
*     ```
