There are ARM systems which are essentially heterogeneous multicores where
some cores implement a different ARM architecture version than other cores. A
specific example is the tegra124 which boots on an ARMv4 coprocessor while
most code, including most of the firmware, runs on the main ARMv7 core. To
support SOCs like this, the plan is to generalize the ARM architecture so that
all versions are available, and an SOC/CPU can then select what architecture
variant should be used for each component of the firmware; bootblock,
romstage, and ramstage.

TEST=Built libpayload and coreboot for link, pit and nyan. Booted into the
bootblock on nyan.

This was never completed / working and we have the working
ARMv7 port for an architecture template, so get rid of this
dead code.

The endianness of an architecture is now set up automatically using Kconfig
and some common code. The available conversion functions were also expanded
to go to or from a particular endianness. Those use the abbreviation le or be
for little or big endian.
Built for Stumpy and saw coreinfo cbfs support work which uses network
byte order. Used the functions which convert to little endian to implement an
AHCI driver. The source arch is also little endian, so they were effectively
(and successfully) inert.
