[PATCH] selftests/powerpc: Fix prefixes in alignment_handler signal handler

The signal handler in the alignment handler self test has the ability to
jump over the instruction that triggered the signal. It does this by
incrementing the PT_NIP in the user context by 4. If it were a prefixed
instruction this will mean that the suffix is then executed which is
incorrect. Instead check if the major opcode indicates a prefixed
instruction (e.g. it is 1) and if so increment PT_NIP by 8.

If ISA v3.1 is not available treat it as a word instruction even if the
major opcode is 1.

alignment_handler test")
