Add FFDC for signatures stored in scratch registers

If analysis was interrupted by a system checkstop there may
exist an error signature within two Hostboot scratch regs
that indicates the signature from that analysis. This commit
adds support to add that signature as FFDC to the PEL if it
exists to indicate that a prior analysis was interrupted
such that we may be missing a PEL for that signature.

Hardware Diagnostics for POWER Systems

In the event of a system fatal error reported by the internal system hardware (processor chips, memory chips, I/O chips, system memory, etc.), POWER Systems have the ability to diagnose the root cause of the failure and perform any service action needed to avoid repeated system failures.

Aditional details TBD.

Building

For a standard OpenBMC release build, you want something like:

meson -Dtests=disabled <build_dir>
ninja -C <build_dir>
ninja -C <build_dir> install

For a test / debug build, a typical configuration is:

meson -Dtests=enabled <build_dir>
ninja -C <build_dir> test
