`unw_getcontext` saves the caller's registers in the context. However, if the caller of `unw_getcontext` is in a different module, the glue code of `unw_getcontext` sets the TOC register (r2) with the new TOC base and saves the original TOC register value in the stack frame. This causes the incorrect TOC value is used when the caller steps up frames, which fails libunwind LIT test case `unw_resume.pass.cpp'. This PR fixes the problem by using the original TOC register value saved in the stack if the caller is in a different module and enables `unw_resume.pass.cpp' on AIX.

Subject: [PATCH] The TOC register (r2) was changed by the glue code if
 unw_getcontext is called from a different module. Fix it up by using the
 original TOC register saved in the stack frame.
