[PowerPC] Document requirements for VSX feature
As suggested in
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2018-10/msg00510.html, this
patch changes the documentation for the VSX tdesc feature to make it
clear that the altivec and FPU features are requirements.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
2018-11-09 Pedro Franco de Carvalho <pedromfc@linux.ibm.com>
* gdb.texinfo (PowerPC Features): Document the altivec and fpu
requirements for the org.gnu.gdb.power.vsx feature.
