vng: arch: list supported arch in case of errors

Instead of listing the one passed by the user: most likely, the user will want to know what to use. While at it, add a comment at the end of ARCH_MAPPING to think about updating get_host_arch() when adding a new arch. Signed-off-by: Matthieu Baerts (NGI0) <[email protected]>
