Zarko Todorovski c1bb75febe [PowerPC] Allow wa inline asm to also accept floating point arguments
GCC documentation for the `wa` constraint states that:
```
wa

    A VSX register (VSR), vs0…vs63. This is either an FPR (vs0…vs31 are f0…f31)
    or a VR (vs32…vs63 are v0…v31).
```
This technically means that we could accept floating point parameters. In fact,
gcc itself does. The following testcase compiles and runs on all PPC platforms with GCC,
whereas clang/llc will assert:
```
#include <stdio.h>
double foo ( vector double a ) {
  double b, c;
  asm("xvabsdp  %x0, %x2        \n"
             "xxsldwi  %x1, %x0, %x0, 2 \n"
      :  "+wa"    (b),
         "=wa"    (c)
      :  "wa"    (a)
      );
  return b+c;
}
int main(void) {
  vector double a = {-3., -4.};
  double t = foo( a );
  printf("%g\n", t);
}
```
This patch allows clang/llc to build and run this testcase.
