[PATCH v4 5/5] powerpc/lib/sstep: Add isel instruction emulation

This adds emulation for the isel instruction.
Tested for correctness against the isel instruction and its extended
mnemonics (lt, gt, eq) on ppc64le.

Signed-off-by: Matt Brown <matthew.brown.dev at gmail.com>
---
v4:
	- simplify if statement to ternary op
	(same as isel emulation in kernel/traps.c)
v2:
	- fixed opcode
	- fixed definition to include the 'if RA=0, a=0' clause
	- fixed ccr bitshifting error
