Subject: [PATCH 23/25] PowerPC: Mark RTTI typeid tests as expected fail before
 inferior start

On PowerPC targets, the RTTI typeinfo objects for base types may not
be emitted until the inferior has been started.  As a result,
the `gdb.cp/typeid.exp` test fails when checking typeid results
before program execution begins.

This patch marks these specific cases as expected failures on PowerPC
when the inferior has not yet started, aligning the behavior with other
targets (such as Clang) where RTTI emission is deferred until runtime.

gdb/testsuite/
    * gdb.cp/typeid.exp (do_typeid_tests): Mark PowerPC pre-start
    RTTI typeinfo checks as expected failures for `i`, `cp`, and `ccp`.
