powerpc: Move cache line size to rtld_global_ro
GCC 10.0 enabled -fno-common by default and this started to point that
__cache_line_size had been implemented in 2 different places: loader and
libc.

In order to avoid this duplication, the libc variable has been removed
and the loader variable is moved to rtld_global_ro.

File sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/dl-auxv.h has been added in order
to reuse code for both static and dynamic linking scenarios.
