powerpc: Add a ppc_inst_as_str() helper
There are quite a few places where instructions are printed, this is done using a '%x' format specifier. With the introduction of prefixed instructions, this does not work well. Currently in these places, ppc_inst_val() is used for the value for %x so only the first word of prefixed instructions are printed. When the instructions are word instructions, only a single word should be printed. For prefixed instructions both the prefix and suffix should be printed. To accommodate both of these situations, instead of a '%x' specifier use '%s' and introduce a helper, __ppc_inst_as_str() which returns a char *. The char * __ppc_inst_as_str() returns is buffer that is passed to it by the caller. It is cumbersome to require every caller of __ppc_inst_as_str() to now declare a buffer. To make it more convenient to use __ppc_inst_as_str(), wrap it in a macro that uses a compound statement to allocate a buffer on the caller's stack before calling it.
