Support clobber_abi and vector registers (clobber-only) in PowerPC inline assembly This supports `clobber_abi` which is one of the requirements of stabilization mentioned in #93335. This basically does a similar thing I did in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/130630 to implement `clobber_abi` for s390x, but for powerpc/powerpc64/powerpc64le. - This also supports vector registers (as `vreg`) as clobber-only, which need to support clobbering of them to implement `clobber_abi`. - `vreg` should be able to accept `#[repr(simd)]` types as input/output if the unstable `altivec` target feature is enabled, but `core::arch::{powerpc,powerpc64}` vector types, `#[repr(simd)]`, and `core::simd` are all unstable, so the fact that this is currently a clobber-only should not be considered a blocker of clobber_abi implementation or stabilization. So I have not implemented it in this PR. - See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/131551 (which is based on this PR) for a PR to implement this. - (I'm not sticking to whether that PR should be a separate PR or part of this PR, so I can merge that PR into this PR if needed.)

We are currently not processing anything about FPSCR and VSCR, but I feel those are things that should be processed by `preserves_flags` rather than `clobber_abi` if we need to do something about them. (However, PPCRegisterInfo.td in LLVM does not seem to define anything about them.)
