powerpc: Add support for function error injection

We implement regs_set_return_value() and override_function_with_return()
for this purpose.

On powerpc, a return from a function (blr) just branches to the location
contained in the link register. So, we can just update pt_regs rather
than redirecting execution to a dummy function that returns.
