    PowerPC, fix test gdb.arch/altivec-regs.exp
    
    The test fails on Power 10 with the RHEL9 distro.  It also fails on
    Power 9.
    
    The test set a the breakpoint in main that stops at line:
    a = 9; /* start here */.  The test then sets a break point at the same
    line where it wants to start the test and does a continue.  GDB does not
    stop again on the same line where it is stopped, but rather continues to
    the end of the program.
    
    Initialize variable A to zero so the break on main will stop before setting
    a break point on line a = 9; /* start here */.
    
    Make the match on the breakpoint number generic.
    
    Patch has been tested on Power 10 with RHEL 9, Power 10 with Ubuntu 22.04,
    and Power 9 with Fedora 36 with no regression failures.
