The Arm AEABI CPU architecture tag constants and macro definitions are renamed to include the profile suffix for A-profile architectures. This change makes the naming consistent with existing v8-R and v8-M tag names, while preserving the existing numeric tag values. This commit updates BFD, GAS and Gold usages accordingly, including attribute combination tables, architecture checks, and mach selection.
