Other architectures are documented in terms of the name that is displayed by
'uname -p', aka MACHINE_ARCH and TARGET_ARCH in the build system, now
aarch64 matches the rest of them.
PR: 220297
Compilers may define multiple variants of architecture-specific macros
(for example, both __x86_64 and __x86_64__). Add a note that the macros
documented in arch.7 are the preferred ones for FreeBSD.

Remove all the details about armeb from arch(7), except for its
release start and end, like alpha, ia64 and pc98.

o Replace __riscv64 with (__riscv && __riscv_xlen == 64)
This is required to support new GCC 7.1 compiler.
This is compatible with current GCC 6.1 compiler.
RISC-V is extensible ISA and the idea here is to have built-in define
per each extension, so together with __riscv we will have some subset
of these as well (depending on -march string passed to compiler):
__riscv_compressed
__riscv_atomic
__riscv_mul
__riscv_div
__riscv_muldiv
__riscv_fdiv
__riscv_fsqrt
__riscv_float_abi_soft
__riscv_float_abi_single
__riscv_float_abi_double
__riscv_cmodel_medlow
__riscv_cmodel_medany
__riscv_cmodel_pic
__riscv_xlen

AKA Make time_t 64 bits on powerpc(32).
PowerPC currently (until now) was one of two architectures with a 32-bit time_t
on 32-bit archs (the other being i386). This is an ABI breakage, so all ports,
and all local binaries, *must* be recompiled.

Start with some words about linear address space and its layout, then
explain pointers models and ABIs, providing explanation to the
