Fix static relocation model for PowerPC64

We now also use `should_assume_dso_local()` for declarations and port two
additional cases from clang:
- Exclude PPC64 [1]
- Exclude thread-local variables [2]

[1]: 033138ea45/clang/lib/CodeGen/CodeGenModule.cpp (L1038-L1040)
[2]: 033138ea45/clang/lib/CodeGen/CodeGenModule.cpp (L1048-L1050)

Tbh I don't know enough about PowerPC(64) to explain why the TOC (table of contents; like the GOT in x86?) is still needed even with the static relocation model. But with these changes [Rust-For-Linux](https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux) runs again on ppc64le. (instead of [getting loaded successfully but crashing](https://github.com/Bobo1239/linux/runs/2646478783?check_suite_focus=true#step:47:358))
