[powerpc] fegetenv_status: simplify instruction generation
fegetenv_status() wants to use the lighter weight instruction 'mffsl' for reading the Floating-Point Status and Control Register (FPSCR). It currently will use it directly if compiled '-mcpu=power9', and will perform a runtime check (cpu_supports("arch_3_00")) otherwise. Nicely, it turns out that the 'mffsl' instruction will decode to 'mffs' on architectures older than "arch_3_00" because the additional bits set for 'mffsl' are "don't care" for 'mffs'. 'mffs' is a superset of 'mffsl'. So, just generate 'mffsl'.
