 testsuite: mark tests broken on powerpc64

 The following tests fail on powerpc64 and have a ticket.
 Mark those tests as expect_broken.

 Here are the details:
 The PowerPC native code generator does not support DWARF debug
 information. This is tracked in ticket #11261. Mark the respective
 tests broken on powerpc64.

 testsuite: mark print022 broken on powerpc64
 Ticket #11262 tracks difference in stdout for print022.

 testsuite: mark recomp015 broken on powerpc64
 testsuite: mark recomp011 broken on powerpc64
 This is tracked as ticket #11323 and #11260.

 testsuite: mark linker tests broken on powerpc64
 Ticket #11259 tracks tests failing because there is no RTS
 linker on powerpc64.

 Test Plan: validate
