Add a CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILER_ARCHITECTURE_ID variable
Compilers such as MSVC and IAR may have variants that target different
architectures. We have been using a `MSVC_<LANG>_ARCHITECTURE_ID`
variable to hold this information for MSVC. Add an alternative with a
more general name (later we can port MSVC to it too).
This additional information may be needed to generate proper invocations
of the compiler based on its architecture variant.
