Lynn Boger bdab5df40f cmd/compile,cmd/internal/obj/ppc64: use mulli where possible
This adds support to allow the use of mulli when one of the multiply
operands is a constant that fits in 16 bits.

This especially helps in the case where this instruction appears in
a loop since the load of the constant is not being moved out of the loop.

Some improvements seen in compress/flate on power9:
