powerpc: Move script to check relocations at compile time in scripts/
Relocating kernel at runtime is done very early in the boot process, so
it is not convenient to check for relocations there and react in case a
relocation was not expected.

Powerpc architecture has a script that allows to check at compile time
for such unexpected relocations: extract the common logic to scripts/
so that other architectures can take advantage of it.
