[PATCH] powerpc: Expose VSX feature test

[Nathan Phillips]

Hope it's OK to submit a small change like this. Trying to familiarize myself
with the patch process.

My copyright assignment is underway.

--

Read the HWCAP auxval key to test for VSX support. Expose result through
the cpu_features interface.

Preliminary change to prepare for PowerPC optimized libmvec implementations
[BZ #20123]. Enables selecting optimized version at load time in ifunc
resolver.

	* sysdeps/powerpc/cpu-features.h (cpu_features): Add vsx field.
	* sysdeps/powerpc/cpu-features.c (init_cpu_features):
	Feature test VSX availability.
