Preliminary support for reporting build platform

Add preliminary support for detection of the build plaform, and reporting
of same with the `git version --build-options' command. This can be useful
for bug reporting, to distinguish between 32 and 64-bit builds for
example.

The current implementation can only distinguish between x86 and x86_64.
This will be extended in future patches. In addition, all 32-bit variants
(i686, i586, etc.) are collapsed into `x86'. An example of the output is:

   $ git version --build-options
   git version 2.9.3.windows.2.826.g06c0f2f
   sizeof-long: 4
   machine: x86_64

The label of `machine' was chosen so the new information will approximate
the output of `uname -m'.
