    aarch64: Add fallback if ARM_CC_FOR_TARGET not set
    
    On Aarch64, you can set ARM_CC_FOR_TARGET to point to the 32-bit
    compiler to use when testing gdb.multi/multi-arch.exp and
    gdb.multi/multi-arch-exec.exp.  If you don't set it, then those
    testcases don't run.
    
    I guess that approximately nobody remembers to set ARM_CC_FOR_TARGET.
    
    This commit adds a fallback.  If ARM_CC_FOR_TARGET is not set, and
    testing for Linux, try arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc,
    arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc, arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc as 32-bit
    compilers, making sure that the produced executable runs on the target
    machine before claiming that the compiler produces useful executables.
