[binutils-gdb] Clarify .arch_extension possible values

    Clarify .arch_extension possible values
    
    Documentation for .arch_extension says it accepts the same architectural
    extensions as those accepted by -mcpu. Given the name and the fact that
    -march for obvious reason also accept the same extensions, I believe
    it's worth mentioning that it accepts the same extensions as both
    -march and -mcpu. This commit addresses that.
