[POWERPC] PS3: Add os-area database routines

Add support for a simple tagged database in the PS3 flash rom
os-area.  The database allows the flash rom os-area to be shared
between a bootloader and installed operating systems.   The
application ps3-flash-util or the library libps3-utils from the
ps3-utils package can be used for userspace database operations.

The latest ps3-utils package is available here:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/geoff/ps3-utils.git
