Lynn Boger 30a63ecee3 runtime: restore r2 when restoring state from gobuf in gogo on ppc64x
When using plugins with goroutines calling cgo, we hit a case where
an intermittent SIGSEGV occurs when referencing an address that is based
on r2 (TOC address). When the failure can be generated in gdb, the
contents of r2 is wrong even though the value in the current stack's
slot for r2 is correct. So that means it somehow switched to start
running the code in this function without passing through the beginning
of the function which had the correct value of r2 and stored it there.

It was noted that in runtime.gogo when the state is restored from
gobuf, r2 is not restored from its slot on the stack. Adding the
instruction to restore r2 prevents the SIGSEGV.

This adds a testcase under testplugin which reproduces the problem if
the program is run multiple times. The team who reported this problem
has verified it fixes the issue on their larger, more complex
application.

Fixes #25756
