The generic microblaze*-*-* target is currently used for --target=microblaze-xilinx-elf.

After adding a microblaze*-*-elf target, what targets would use
generic target?  If there are no known configurations which would
match, there's little value in keeping a target which is never built.

I don't have any objection to renaming the target from microblaze*-*-*
to microblaze-*-*-elf.
