[arm] Replace command-line option .def files with single definition file


The files arm-cores.def, arm-fpus.def and arm-arches.def are parsed and
used in several places and the format is slightly awkward to maintain
as they must be parsable in C and by certain scripts.  Furthermore,
changes to the content that affects every entry is particularly awkward
for dealing with merges.

This patch replaces all three files with a single file that specifies
all the command-line related definitions in a new format that allows for
better checking for consistency as well as (hopefully) easier to merge
changes.

The awk script used to parse it is relatively complicated, but should be
pretty portable.  It works by parsing in all the data and then operating
one of a number of possible sub-commands to generate the desired output.

The new method picked up one error.  The CPU descriptions referred to an
architecture ARMv5tej which was not supported by -march.  This has been
fixed by adding the relevant entry to the architecture list.
