[Bug translator/10581] New: All generated modules need to consider ARCH


We build quite a few things in buildrun.cxx, and we need to make sure that
ARCH-selection works for all.

1. compile_pass: the final script module
-- Thus far, this is the only arch-enabled piece.

2. make_uprobes: support module for userspace probing
-- Since this needs to be shipped to the target machine anyway, it may be safe
to punt on this and require manual uprobes.ko installation.

3. make_tracequery: module to query available tracepoints in a header
-- It's probably sufficient to just add the ARCH and kbuild flags to the make
command.  The kbuild flags also need to be hashed.

4. make_typequery_kmod: module to compile kernel type information
-- Same as #3.

5. make_typequery_umod: module to compile userspace type information
-- We need a way to pass the compiler/flags for native userspace binaries on
ARCH.  We also have the more general problem for supporting mixed-arch systems,
and for user headers that may require additional flags like -I.
