66c8095956 Rename elf*-powerpc into elf*-powerpc-freebsd in binutils
The powerpc support was the only supported architecture not prepending the elf format name
with "-freebsd" in base this change makes it consistent with other architectures.
On newer version of binutils the powerpc format is also prepended with "-freebsd".

Also modify the kernel ldscripts in that regards.

As a result it is now possible cross build the kernel on powerpc using newer binutils

67167531f0 Provide support in loader for booting 64-bit PowerPC kernels. Like amd64,
64-bit PowerPC kernels are loaded by a 32-bit loader, since nearly all
powerpc64 firmwares execute in 32-bit mode.

Add support for U-Boot. This uses the U-Boot API as developed by
