Subject: [PATCH v4 2/3] gpu: nova-core: make Architecture behave as a u8 type

This allows Architecture to be passed into register!() and bitfield!()
macro calls. That in turn requires a default implementation for
Architecture.

This simplifies transforming BOOT0 (and later, BOOT42) register values
into GPU architectures.
