powerpc/qspinlock: add ability to prod new queue head CPU
After the head of the queue acquires the lock, it releases the next waiter in the queue to become the new head. Add an option to prod the new head if its vCPU was preempted. This may only have an effect if queue waiters are yielding. Disable this option by default for now, i.e., no logical change.
