arch/powerpc: add powerpc64le support

Technically, I don't forbid powerpcle support either, but I'm not sure that
there is any library/compiler support for that at the moment (though the hw
technically makes it possible).

powerpc64le needs glibc 2.19 and gcc 4.9. I haven't looked into the support
tools, but at least gdb 7.5 is too old (7.7.1 definitely has support).

Also make powerpc64 non-experimental. It's practically old at this point.

I tried to use crosstool-ng to generate a toolchain for Linux on big

It appears that the gcc patch (for gcc 4.2.x)

     8
for big-endian arm (240-arm-bigendian.patch) lacks the change attached
