Subject: [PATCH v2 1/6] tools/nolibc: error out on unsupported architecture

When an architecture is unsupported arch.h would silently continue.
This leads to a lot of followup errors because my_syscallX() is not
defined and the startup code is missing.

Avoid these confusing errors and fail the build early with a clear
error message and location.
