[PowerPC] Aliases for vector registers

This patch defines pseudo-registers "v0" through "v31" as aliases that
map to the corresponding raw "vr0" through "vr31" vector registers for
Power.

The motivation behind this is that although GDB defines these
registers as "vrX", the disassembler prints them as "vX", e.g. as the
operands in instructions such as "vaddubm v2,v1,v1".  This can be
confusing to users trying to print out the values of the operands
while inspecting the disassembled code.

The new aliases are made not to belong to any register group, to avoid
duplicated values in "info register vector" and "info register all".
The arch-specific rs6000_pseudo_register_reggroup_p function had
previously been removed since the other pseudo-registers could have
their groups inferred by their type.  It restored with this patch to
handle the aliases.  Membership for the other pseudo-registers is
still determined using the default function.

A new tests checks that GDB prints the expected values of vector
registers after they are filled by the inferior, by using both the raw
names and the aliases.  Two other existing tests are modified to also
test the aliases.
