linux-user/ppc: Fix ppc64 rt_sigframe stack offset

The kernel's 64-bit signal delivery (signal_64.c) uses:

    newsp = frame - __SIGNAL_FRAMESIZE

while the 32-bit path (signal_32.c) uses:

    newsp = frame - (__SIGNAL_FRAMESIZE + 16)

The extra 16 bytes in the 32-bit case is to place siginfo and ucontext
at the same offsets as older kernels (see the comment in signal_32.c).
The 64-bit rt_sigframe starts with ucontext directly and does not need
this adjustment.

QEMU's setup_rt_frame() unconditionally used (SIGNAL_FRAMESIZE + 16)
for both 32-bit and 64-bit, placing the handler's SP 16 bytes too low
on ppc64. Signal delivery and return still worked because do_rt_sigreturn
had the matching wrong offset, but the vDSO DWARF unwind info encodes
the correct kernel offset. This caused any DWARF unwinder (libunwind,
libgcc, etc.) to compute a CFA that is 16 bytes off, reading garbage
register values from the signal frame.

Define RT_SIGFRAME_ADJUST (0 on ppc64, 16 on ppc32) and use it in both
setup_rt_frame and do_rt_sigreturn to match the kernel.

This was verified by A/B testing with libunwind's test suite:

  ppc64le: Gtest-bt, Ltest-bt, Gtest-concurrent, Ltest-concurrent,
           and Ltest-sig-context all change from FAIL to PASS.
  ppc64be: Gtest-bt, Ltest-bt, and Ltest-sig-context all change
           from FAIL to PASS.
