Add host-triplet aliasing feature to mkheader.
* src/Makefile.am (lock_obj_pub): Rename i586-pc-linux-gnu to i686-pc-linux-gnu. Remove i486-pc-linux-gnu. * src/mkheader.c (canon_host_triplet): New. (main): Use it. -- config.sub does not map i{4,5,6}86-pc-linux-gnu to one common triplet. However, they all use the same ABI and thus we do not need several versions of the syscfg files.
