[RS6000] Don't pass -many to the assembler
glibc builds are failing when an assembly implementation does not
declare the correct '.machine' directive, or when no such directive is
declared at all. For example, when a POWER6 instruction is used, but
'.machine power6' is not declared, the assembler will fail with an error
similar to the following:
../sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power8/strcmp.S: Assembler messages:
24 ../sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power8/strcmp.S:55: Error: unrecognized opcode: `cmpb'
This patch adds '.machine powerN' directives where none existed, as well
as it updates '.machine power7' directives on POWER8 files, because the
minimum binutils version required to build glibc (binutils 2.25) now
provides this machine version. It also adds '-many' to the assembler
command used to build tst-set_ppr.c.
Tested for powerpc, powerpc64, and powerpc64le, as well as with
build-many-glibcs.py for powerpc targets.

Clean up the IFUNC implementations for powerpc in order to remove
unneeded macro definitions.
Tested on ppc64le with and without --disable-multi-arch flag.

the implementation-specific function name and remove unneeded

More little-endian support. I leave the main strcmp loops unchanged,
(well, except for renumbering rTMP to something other than r0 since
it's needed in an addi insn) and modify the tail for little-endian.
I noticed some of the big-endian tail code was a little untidy so have
cleaned that up too.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/strcmp.S (rTMP2): Define as r0.
(rTMP): Define as r11.
(strcmp): Add little-endian support. Optimise tail.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/strcmp.S: Similarly.
