I wasn't sure if we wanted to use the edk2 architecture identifiers
here, or the last _FOO substrings from the macro names verbatim.

One fact that supported just picking _FOO is:

"BaseTools/Source/C/Include/IndustryStandard/PeImage.h" has two mappings
for Itanium (different macro name, same replacement text):

#define EFI_IMAGE_MACHINE_IA64      IMAGE_FILE_MACHINE_IA64
#define EFI_IMAGE_MACHINE_IPF       IMAGE_FILE_MACHINE_IA64

The identifier that you can find in the edk2 INF files is IPF, not IA64,
but the above lookup strings include IA64, not IPF. This suggested that
the _FOO suffixes were authoritative, not the arch identifiers that we
use in the DSC / INF etc files.

I'm fine either way, but I would like to hear back from the BaseTools
maintainers too. Because, if we go with ARM, but keep IA64 (rather than
IPF), then that's a (differently) inconsistent situation. And if we
change IA64 to IPF as well, then downstream scripts that presumably
parse the output might break... Fun...

For now I prefer ARMT. Ugly but self-consistent (within the tool). If
Liming / Yonghong agree with you, I'll be happy to repost.

Thanks!
Laszlo
