ppc-opcode.h have base instruction encoding wrapped with stringify_in_c()
for raw encoding to have compatibility. But there are redundant macros for
base instruction encodings in bpf, instruction emulation test infrastructure
and powerpc selftests.

Currently PPC_INST_* macros are used for encoding instruction opcode and PPC_*
for raw instuction encoding, this rfc patchset introduces PPC_RAW_* macros for
base instruction encoding and reuse it from elsewhere. With this change we can
avoid redundant macro definitions in multiple files and start adding new
instructions in ppc-opcode.h in future.

Changes in v2:
-------------
Fix review comments/suggestions from Naveen and Michael Ellerman,

* Rename PPC_ENCODE_* to PPC_RAW_* for base instruction encoding macros.
* Split the patches that does mass renaming and make them simpler that just
  adds new macros.
* Keep the patch to update all the existing names later (patch 6).
* Lot of PPC_INST_* macros are used only in ppc-opcode.h for PPC_*  macros,
  fold PPC_INST_* encoding into PPC_RAW_* to avoid using them accidentally.
* Fixed clipped macros that was due to a typo/copy-paste
* Consolidated all the instruction encoding macros from bpf_jit.h to
  ppc-opcode.h
* squashed patch that removes the duplicate macro PPC_MR() in bpf_jit.h
* merge few changes in bpf_jit files from patch 2 into patch 3
* few fixes in powerpc selftest stringloops Makefile
* build tested for ppc64le_defconfig, ppc64e_defconfig and pmac32_defconfig
* Rebased on next branch of linuxppc tree

Testing:
-------
* Tested it by compiling vmlinux and comparing objdump of it with and without
  the patchset and observed that it remains same,

  # diff vmlinux_objdump vmlinux_rfc_objdump 
  2c2
  < vmlinux:     file format elf64-powerpcle
  ---
  > vmlinux_rfc:     file format elf64-powerpcle

* Tested building it with this changes for Fedora30 config, booted VM
  with powerpc next and powerpc next + patchset to run powerpc selftest and
  ftrace selftest. There were couple of failures that were common and
  patchset did not introduce any new failures.

  ftrace selftest:
  ---------------
	# # of passed:  96
	# # of failed:  1
	# # of unresolved:  7
	# # of untested:  0
	# # of unsupported:  1
	# # of xfailed:  1
	# # of undefined(test bug):  0
	not ok 1 selftests: ftrace: ftracetest # exit=1

  powerpc selftest:
  ----------------
        not ok 7 selftests: powerpc/dscr: dscr_sysfs_thread_test # exit=1
        not ok 20 selftests: powerpc/pmu/ebb: lost_exception_test # TIMEOUT
        not ok 2 selftests: powerpc/security: spectre_v2 # exit=1

Thanks to Naveen, Sandipan and Michael on overall suggestions/improvements.

I would request for review and suggestions to make it better.
