[PATCH 3/6] lib: stackprot: omit HAVE_STACKPROTECTOR for powerpc

gcc for PowerPC generates references to __stack_chk_guard_local and
aliasing it to __stack_chk_guard doesn't lead to a bootable barebox, so
let's disable stack protector on that architecture.
The other architectures are assumed to work, but this should be verified
per CI test in future.
