Log:
drop 32-bit ARM support for RHEL 10+
32-bit ARM is not a RHEL supported target. Support for 32-bit ARM was
added to the gdb.spec file, unconditionally, long ago, and RHEL picked
this up.
But I think it is time for a clean up. Lets drop 32-bit ARM support
for RHEL 10+, but retain 32-bit ARM support for:
* Fedora -- Fedora is not RHEL, we can support more targets if we
wish, and 32-bit ARM SBCs are pretty popular, so lets retain
support.
* RHEL 9 and earlier -- It's probably a little late in the life
cycle to drop 32-bit ARM support from these RHEL versions. So,
in the spirit of least surprise, lets retain 32-bit ARM
support.
