arch: allow adding a suffix to the arch-part of a tuple
For some architectures, it is legit to have an alternate value in the 'architecture' part of the tuple. For example: armv5te-* armv7a8-* Besides, some packages expect the tuple to reflect the arch variant (eg. openMPI) to detect the variant's capabilities (eg. atomic primitives). This patch adds an option for the user to specify a suffix to be added to the arch-part of the tuple.

+ Some architectures have multiple variants and being able to specify
+ the variant instead of the arch is quite convenient. This is commonly
+ seen for instance when "armv5tel-" is used as a prefix instead of the
+ more generic "arm-", or with "alphaev6-" instead of "alpha-".
+
+ Whatever you enter here will be appended to the architecture-part of the
+ tuple, just before the first '-'. It will override any architecture-
+ specific suffix that crosstool-NG may compute.
+
+ If you are not sure about what this is, leave it blank.
