PR13616, linker should pad executable sections with nops, not zeros
This implements padding of orphan executable sections for PowerPC.
Of course, the simple implementation of bfd_arch_ppc_nop_fill and
removing the NOP definition didn't work, with powerpc64 hitting a
testsuite failure linking to S-records. That's because the srec
target is BFD_ENDIAN_UNKNOWN so the test of bfd_big_endian (abfd) in
default_data_link_order therefore returned false, resulting in a
little-endian nop pattern. The rest of the patch fixes that problem
by adding a new field to bfd_link_info that can be used to determine
actual endianness on targets like srec.

include/
* bfdlink.h (struct bfd_link_info <big_endian>): New field.
bfd/
* cpu-powerpc.c (bfd_arch_ppc_nop_fill): New function, use it
for all ppc arch info.
* linker.c (default_data_link_order): Pass info->big_endian to
arch_info->fill function.
ld/
* emulparams/elf64lppc.sh (NOP): Don't define.
* emulparams/elf64ppc.sh (NOP): Don't define.
* ldwrite.c (build_link_order): Use link_info.big_endian. Move
code determining endian to use for data_statement to..
* ldemul.c (after_open_default): ..here. Set link_info.big_endian.
