[PATCH] powerpc/bug: Add ARCH_WARN_ASM and refactor _EMIT_BUG_ENTRY for Rust support

The Rust kernel infrastructure generates inline asm for WARN() via
ARCH_WARN_ASM(file, line, flags, size), expanding it through a C
preprocessor pass (generated_arch_warn_asm.rs.S) to produce an
arch-specific asm template string for use in Rust's core::arch macros.
powerpc currently lacks ARCH_WARN_ASM and ARCH_WARN_REACHABLE, causing
Rust builds to fail on powerpc.
Refactor _EMIT_BUG_ENTRY to accept explicit (file, line, flags) string
arguments rather than relying on positional asm operand references
(%0, %1, %2, %3). This allows the macro to be composed as a plain
string concatenation, which is required for ARCH_WARN_ASM where no asm
operand context exists.
Move the .org and .previous directives out of _EMIT_BUG_ENTRY and into
the BUG_ENTRY() call site to preserve existing behaviour while enabling
ARCH_WARN_ASM to supply its own size operand independently.
Add ARCH_WARN_REACHABLE as an empty define, matching the arm64
convention, indicating that no additional reachability annotation is
needed after a WARN on powerpc.
This brings powerpc into line with x86, arm64, s390, and riscv, all of
which already define ARCH_WARN_ASM and ARCH_WARN_REACHABLE.
