Clément Chigot 5680874e0c test: fix nilptr5 for AIX
This commit fixes a mistake made in CL 144538.
This nilcheck can be removed because OpPPC64LoweredMove will fault if
arg0 is nil, as it's used to store. Further information can be found in
cmd/compile/internal/ssa/nilcheck.go.

Clément Chigot 9fe9853ae5 cmd/compile: fix nilcheck for AIX
This commit adapts compile tool to create correct nilchecks for AIX.

AIX allows to load a nil pointer. Therefore, the default nilcheck
which issues a load must be replaced by a CMP instruction followed by a
store at 0x0 if the value is nil. The store will trigger a SIGSEGV as on
others OS.

The nilcheck algorithm must be adapted to do not remove nilcheck if it's
only a read. Stores are detected with v.Type.IsMemory().

Tests related to nilptr must be adapted to the previous changements.
nilptr.go cannot be used as it's because the AIX address space starts at
1<<32.
