help: special-case HOST_CPU universal

When building Git as a universal binary on macOS, the binary supports more than
one target architecture. This is a bit of a problem for the `HOST_CPU`
setting that is woefully unprepared for such a situation, as it wants to
show architecture hard-coded at build time.

In preparation for releasing universal builds, work around this by
special-casing `universal` and replacing it at run-time with the known
values `x86_64` or `arm64`.
