New description:

 Since `sage-env` sources `$SAGE_LOCAL/bin/sage-check-64`, it makes sense
 to move the latter file to `$SAGE_ROOT/spkg/bin`.  I also propose to
 rename the file to "sage-arch-env".  I would like to support a SAGE32 flag
 (see #12726) and it makes sense to use the same file for this.

 Further changes:
  1. use `$SAGE_LOCAL/etc/sage-64.txt` as indicator file for `SAGE64`
 instead of `$SAGE_LOCAL/lib/sage-64.txt` (`sage-64.txt` looks more like a
 configuration file than a library).
  2. remove all "echo" statements from `sage-check-64` (they were being
 redirected to /dev/null anyway).
  3. move the sourcing of this file up in sage-env, before the compiler
 flags are set.  This would allow changing the default compiler flags,
 depending on `SAGE64` or other future architecture flags.
  4. remove sourcing of `sage-check-64` from `local/bin/sage-build`.  The
 latter script is only called from `spkg/bin/sage` at which point `SAGE64`
 is already set if needed.
  5. remove all uname checks: don't make a difference between OS X, Solaris
 and other systems (it doesn't mean `SAGE64` is supported on all systems of
 course).
  6. if SAGE64 is set to "no", delete sage-64.txt.

 '''Apply''':
  1. [attachment:12789_scripts.patch] to the SCRIPTS repository.
  2. [attachment:12789_root.patch] to the ROOT repository.
