I've found a way to solve the remaining FFI problem on linux PPC64 Big Endian. Large structs (>8 Bytes) which are passed in registers or on stack require shifting the Bytes in the last slot if the size is not a multiple of 8. This PR adds the required functionality to the Java code.
Please review and provide feedback. There may be better ways to implement it. I just found one which works and makes the tests pass:

Note: This PR should be considered as preparation work for AIX which also uses ABIv1.
