gnu: racket-vm-bc: Add workaround for ppc64le.

Browse source 
This is an attempt to avoid a problem with Racket BC on ppc64 reported
in <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/57050#19> that was exposed by attempting
to use Racket BC to bootstrap Chez Scheme. Thanks to Matthew Flatt for
the workaround: <https://racket.discourse.group/t/950/30>.

* gnu/packages/racket.scm (racket-vm-bc)[arguments]<#:configure-flags>:
Increase the number of bytes that should be available on the stack for
"safety" when checking for stack overflow.
