Bug 1540882 - Align binutils aarch64 target with build time clang --target.

When cross-building with clang, we use --target with a target that is
derived from the configure target, with the vendor removed. So for
configure --target=aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu, we use
clang --target=aarch64-linux-gnu.

Then, clang itself looks for tools as $target-$tool first, then
$tool, which means for the assembler, it's looking for
aarch64-linux-gnu-as before as, but not
aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu-as.

Building GNU as with --target=aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu creates the
aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu-as, but we really want aarch64-linux-gnu,
so we adjust the target in the binutils build script.
