Rollup merge of #137860 - taiki-e:powerpcspe-msync, r=workingjubilee 
rustc_target: Add msync target feature and enable it on powerpcspe targets

Some older PowerPC processors do not have the `sync` (`sync 0`) and `lwsync` (`sync 1`) instructions, but instead have the `msync` instruction. (IIRC `msync` and `sync` will be assembled into the same bit-pattern, but `lwsync` will be SIGILL. See also https://gcc.gnu.org/legacy-ml/gcc-patches/2006-11/msg01238.html.)

LLVM recognizes this as the [`msync` feature](cc5d8a4b2f/llvm/lib/Target/PowerPC/PPC.td (L140)) and enables for some cpus such as [e500](cc5d8a4b2f/llvm/lib/Target/PowerPC/PPC.td (L644)).

powerpcspe is a target for CPUs such as e500 ([Debian Wiki](https://wiki.debian.org/PowerPCSPEPort)). However, the `msync` feature is currently not enabled except for vxworks, and at least since 2022-04, powerpc-unknown-linux-gnuspe was known to not work on real hardware without `-C target-cpu` (e.g., #96394, #117361).

rustc_target contains some very low-level details that are specific to different compilation targets and so forth.
