Update to 20230921; some Makefile maintenance; patches for FreeBSD use

Hello,

Working on unbundling GENie from emulators/mame, I noticed that devel/genie=
 did
not have the same patches that were required in MAME for GENie to correctly
produce GMake projects/files.

When stock GENie from devel/genie runs, it hardcodes the use of ${ARCH} into
all the GNU Makefiles that it generates, I am not sure what for, and I have
noticed that both NetBSD and OpenBSD are able to use GENie like that. I tho=
ught
the initial problem may have been because of FreeBSD's historic preference =
to
use amd64 over x86_64, however, the GENie build system looks like it
compensates for this.

If I use stock devel/genie for MAME, the build fails with Clang not being a=
ble
to find ${ARCH}, if I modify the build to create a directory ${ARCH}, the
linker fails with finding no input, or not liking finding a directory. I am=
 not
sure what exactly is the solution, however, I think FreeBSD automagically
incantates the correct ISA bit width spell, so I suspect that is why the MA=
ME
port removed all references to ${ARCH} in the GENie related build configs.

So included with this update, is the following patches:
* files/patch-build_gmake.freebsd_genie.make (already part of devel/genie)
Have commented out AR, CC, and CXX in the makefile so the Ports values are
inherited. Also removed the offending $(ARCH), and some -Os optimisations so
not to poison the compiler environment inherited from the Ports.

* files/patch-src_host_scripts.c
This file has a mega sized const char* containing loads of predefined build=
-fu
for all GENie supporting platforms (most of which are lumped together), her=
e is
where ${ARCH} is littered. This file eventually contributes to building the
custom GNU Makefile for the Project (in this case, MAME) for the supporting
platform.

* files/patch-src_tools_gcc.lua
Attempt to use compiler environment inherited from Ports again.

Thanks.
