powerpc: Define USE_PPC64_NOTOC iff compiler supports it
The @notoc usage only yields an advantage on ISA 3.1+ machine (power10)
and for ld.bfd also when it sees pcrel relocations used on the code
(generated if compiler targets ISA 3.1+).  On bfd case ISA 3.1+
instruction on stubs are used iff linker also sees the new pc-relative
relocations (for instance R_PPC64_D34), otherwise it generates default
stubs (ppc64_elf_check_relocs:4700).

This patch also help on linkers that do not implement this optimization,
since building for older ISA (such as 3.0 / power9) will also trigger
power10 stubs generation in the assembly code uses the NOTOC imacro.

Checked on powerpc64le-linux-gnu.
