[PATCH] powerpc: add PPC_FEATURE userspace bits for SCV and DARN instructions

Providing "scv" support to userspace requires kernel support, so it
must be advertised as independently to the base ISA 3 instruction set.
The darn instruction relies on firmware enablement, so it has been
decided to split this out from the core ISA 3 feature as well.

These uapi changes have been agreed by powerpc toolchain and firmware
teams. I believe this completes our anticipated requirements for user
feature advertisement for ISA v3.0B.
