vga16fb: drop powerpc support
I noticed that commit 0db5b61e ("fbdev/vga16fb: Create EGA/VGA devices in sysfb code") broke vga16fb on non-x86 platforms, because the sysfb code never creates a vga-framebuffer device when screen_info.orig_video_isVGA is set to '1' instead of VIDEO_TYPE_VGAC. However, it turns out that the only architecture that has allowed building vga16fb in the past 20 years is powerpc, and this only worked on two 32-bit platforms and never on 64-bit powerpc. The last machine that actually used this was removed in linux-3.10, so this is all dead code and can be removed. The big-endian support in vga16fb.c could also be removed, but I'd just leave this in place.
