target/ppc: Fix regression due to Power10 and Power11 having same PCR
Power11 has the same PCR (Processor Compatibility Register) value, as
Power10.

Due to this, QEMU considers Power11 as a valid compat-mode for Power10,
ie. earlier it was possible to run QEMU with
'-M pseries,max-compat-mode=power11 --cpu power10'

Same PCR also introduced a regression where `-M pseries --cpu power10`
boots as Power11 (ie. logical PVR is of Power11, even though PVR is
Power10).  The regression was due to 'do_client_architecture_support'
checking for valid compat modes and finding Power11 to be a valid compat
mode for Power10 (it happens even without passing 'max-compat-mode'
explicitly).

Fix compat-mode issue and regression, by ensuring a future Power
processor (with a higher logical_pvr value, eg. P11) cannot be valid
compat-mode for an older Power processor (eg. P10)
