[RFC PATCH 1/3] cpu: Add a way to detect 32-bit mode from argv0

[Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com>]

In the future, we might want to avoid compiling certain targets separately
for 32-bit mode (i.e. -i386, -arm and -ppc) where the 64-bit variant is a
superset of the 32-bit variant. But it would be good to provide a way to
mimic the 32-bit behavior via the program name in case the users need this
compatibility for some scenarios. Thus add a function that checks
for the old 32-bit program names and sets a flag accordingly.
