PPC: remove indirection from struct pd_reg

The longest register name is 5 characters (plus a nul one), so using a
4- or 8-byte pointer to get at it is neither space nor time efficient.
Embed the names right into the array. For PIE this also reduces the
number of base relocations in the final image.
