This patch improves GEMM for FP32 Data Type on PowerPC
Implements GEMM on large blocks with configurable block size mc, nc, kc
(default: 256, 256, 256).
Packing Function optimized to access blocks as per memory layout.
GEMM Optimized to work on larger blocks.
Isolated Packing from GEMM Operations for better MMA utilization.
Verified functionality and correctness uing llama-cli and stand alone
test case (performs matmul and compares final mattrix C result with base).
Minor code refactoring changes:
Replace macro with inline function
Code Indent made consistent with 4 spaces
Performance Testing:
Observed 50% ~ 70% improvement in Prompt Processing Speed mesured using
llama-bench with Meta-Llama3-8B FP32 Model. Similar gains observed with
Mistral-7b-Instruct-v0.3 Model.

25 ~ 30% improvement in llama-batched-bench with Metla-Llama3-8B in
Prompt Processing Speed for large prompts (256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096)tokens with various batch
sizes ( 1, 2, 4, 8, 16)

Remove un-necessary templates from class definition and packing functions
Reduce deeply nested conditionals, if-else switching in mnapck function
Replace repetitive code with inline functions in Packing functions
2 ~ 7% improvement in Q8 Model
15 ~ 50% improvement in Q4 Model

Some systems report the CPU implementation as "Power11" instead of "POWER11".
The existing CMake logic uses a case-sensitive regular expression to extract
the CPU generation, which fails when the casing doesn't exactly match "POWER".
This patch provides a fix by first converting the string to uppercase before applying the regex.

This patch upstreams llamafile's cpu matrix multiplication kernels for ppc64le using MMA builtins for BF16 data type.
This change results in 9x - 40x gains
in total speed S t/s (ie all tokens/total time), across various batch sizes tested using llama-batched-bench benchmark.
The patch is tested with Meta-Lllama-3-8B,
and Mistral-7B models (BF16 models generated by using llama-quantize from corresponding FP32 models) on an IBM POWER10 machine.
