Provide PowerPC optimised implementations of callish prim ops. MO_?_QuotRem The generic implementation of quotient remainder prim ops uses a division and a remainder operation. There is no remainder on PowerPC and so we need to implement remainder "by hand" which results in a duplication of the divide operation when using the generic code. Avoid this duplication by implementing the prim op in the native code generator. MO_U_Mul2 Use PowerPC's instructions for long multiplication. Addition and subtraction Use PowerPC add/subtract with carry/overflow instructions MO_Clz and MO_Ctz Use PowerPC's CNTLZ instruction and implement count trailing zeros using count leading zeros MO_QuotRem2 Implement an algorithm given by Henry Warren in "Hacker's Delight" using PowerPC divide instruction. TODO: Use long division instructions when available (POWER7 and later).
