commit c35559f94ebc ("x86/shstk: Introduce map_shadow_stack syscall")
recently added support for map_shadow_stack() but it is limited to x86
only for now. There is a possibility that other architectures (namely,
arm64 and RISC-V), that are implementing equivalent support for shadow
stacks, might need to add support for it.

Independent of that, reserving arch-specific syscall numbers in the
syscall tables of all architectures is good practice and would help
avoid future conflicts. map_shadow_stack() is marked as a conditional
syscall in sys_ni.c. Adding it to the syscall tables of other
architectures is harmless and would return ENOSYS when exercised.

Note, map_shadow_stack() was assigned #453 during the merge process
since #452 was taken by fchmodat2().

For Powerpc, map it to sys_ni_syscall() as is the norm for Powerpc
syscall tables.

For Alpha, map_shadow_stack() takes up #563 as Alpha still diverges from
the common syscall numbering system in the other architectures.

v2:
- Skip syscall table changes to tools/. They will be handled separetely by the
  perf folks.
- Map Powerpc to sys_ni_syscall (Rick Edgecombe)
