RFR 8027059: (sctp) fatal warnings overly restrictive with gcc 4.8.1

The SCTP native code complies with -Werror. gcc 4.8.1 reports unused
parameters as warnings, and this causes the build to fail. gcc 4.8.1 is
the defaul on Ubuntu 13.10.
These parameters are required as the functions are JNI functions. The
simplest solution is to ignore/suppress these unused param warnings.

With this change it may be possible to remove the special casing of ppc?
I would need to check, but this could be handled separately.
