Following tests are constantly failing on powerpc:

  # perf test break
  18: Breakpoint overflow signal handler         : FAILED!
  19: Breakpoint overflow sampling               : FAILED!

The powerpc so far does not have support to even create
instruction breakpoint using the perf event interface,
so those tests fail early in the config phase.

I added 'is_supported' callback to test struct to be able
to disable specific test. It seems better than putting
ifdefs directly to the test array.
