This patch series is a couple of small patches to make the 'make config'
of the build a bit easier for users.

Users can now 'make defconfig' which will pick a sensible default based on
some 'uname' queries of the system.

Users can also set RTE_TEMPLATE in their environment which will get picked
users type 'make config' without T=template.

The changes are documented in docs/build-sdk-quick.txt.

v2 changes:
  Added better handling for non-IA platforms. The list is now as follows:
  uname -m  Output Target
  --------  ------------------
  aarch64   arm64-armv8a-...
  armv7l    arm-armv7a-...
  ppc64     ppc_64-power8-...
  x86_64    x86_64-native-...
  i686      i686-native-...

v3 changes:
  * Changed the use of RTE_TARGET back to it's original purpose and added new
    environmental variable RTE_TEMPLATE. Fully backward compatible if this is
    not set.
  * Added documentation changes to build-sdk-quick.txt to describe additions.

[1/3] mk: add sensible default target with defconfig
[2/3] mk: allow use of environment var for template
[3/3] doc: update build-sdk-quick txt file
