8365560: [8u] ppc64le MaxRAM default is too low at 4GiB

[jmtd]

Bump the default value of MaxRAM from 4GiB to 128GiB on PPC64, aligning with the other 64bit ports.

This change was made as part of a bundle of clean-ups in JDK11 (JDK-8194814), but here I do not attempt to backport the other changes.
