ppc/pnv: add skeleton PowerNV platform

The goal is to emulate a PowerNV system at the level of the skiboot
firmware, which loads the OS and provides some runtime services. Power
Systems have a lower firmware (HostBoot) that does low level system
initialization, like DRAM training. This is beyond the scope of what
qemu will address in a PowerNV guest.

No devices yet, not even an interrupt controller. Just to get started,
some RAM to load the skiboot firmware, the kernel and initrd. The
device tree is fully created in the machine reset op.
