This patch add optimized __mpn_addmul, __mpn_addsub, __mpn_lshift, and
__mpn_mul_1 implementations for PowerPC64. They are originally from GMP
with adjustments for GLIBC.
This patch add static probes for setjmp/longjmp in the way gdb expects,fixing
the gdb.base/longjmp.exp gdb testcases.
It changes the symbol_name and use macros to to avoid change the probe names
and ending up adding more logic on GDB (since with the expected name
GDB work seamlessly).
To avoid having a ELFv2 binary accidentally picking up an old ABI ld.so,
this patch bumps the soname to ld64.so.2.
In theory (or for testing purposes) this will also allow co-installing
ld.so versions for both ABIs on the same system. Note that the kernel
will already be able to load executables of both ABIs. However, there
is currently no plan to use that theoretical possibility in a any
supported distribution environment ...
Note that in order to check which ABI to use, we need to invoke the
compiler to check the _CALL_ELF macro; this is done in a new configure
check in sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc64/configure.ac,
replacing the hard-coded value of default-abi in the Makefile.
The ELFv2 ABI changes the calling convention by passing and returning
structures in registers in more cases than the old ABI:

For the most part, this does not affect glibc, since glibc assembler
files do not use structure parameters / return values. However, one
place is affected: the LD_AUDIT interface provides a structure to
the audit routine that contains all registers holding function
argument and return values for the intercepted PLT call.
Since the new ABI now sometimes uses registers to return values
that were never used for this purpose in the old ABI, this structure
has to be extended. To force audit routines to be modified for the
new ABI if necessary, the patch defines v2 variants of the la_ppc64
types and routines.
In addition, the patch contains two unrelated changes to the
PLT trampoline routines: it fixes a bug where FPR return values
were stored in the wrong place, and it removes the unnecessary
save/restore of CR.
