powerpc: Change calling convention for create_branch() et. al.
create_branch(), create_cond_branch() and translate_branch() return the instruction that they create, or return 0 to signal an error. Separate these concerns in preparation for an instruction type that is not just an unsigned int. Fill the created instruction to a pointer passed as the first parameter to the function and use a non-zero return value to signify an error.
