[PowerPC] allow D-form VSX load/store when accessing FrameIndex without offset

VSX D-form load/store instructions of POWER9 require the offset be a multiple of 16 and a helper`isOffsetMultipleOf` is used to check this.
So far, the helper handles FrameIndex + offset case, but not handling FrameIndex without offset case. Due to this, we are missing opportunities to exploit D-form instructions when accessing an object or array allocated on stack.
For example, x-form store (stxvx) is used for int a[4] = {0}; instead of d-form store (stxv). For larger arrays, D-form instruction is not used when accessing the first 16-byte. Using D-form instructions reduces register pressure as well as instructions.
