Hal Finkel 860c08cad5 Implement optimizeCompareInstr for PPC
Many PPC instructions have a so-called 'record form' which stores to a specific
condition register the result of comparing the result of the instruction with
zero (always as a signed comparison). For integer operations on PPC64, this is
always a 64-bit comparison.

This implementation is derived from the implementation in the ARM backend;
there are some differences because PPC condition registers are allocatable
virtual registers (although the record forms always use a specific one), and we
look for a matching subtraction instruction after the compare (but before the
first use) in addition to before it.
