Newer versions of the GNU assembler (observed with binutils 2.41) will
complain about the ".arch i386" in files assembled with "as --64",
with the message "Error: 64bit mode not supported on 'i386'".
In files such as stack.S that contain no instructions to be assembled,
the ".arch i386" is redundant and may be removed entirely.
In the remaining files, fix by moving ".arch i386" below the relevant
".code16" or ".code32" directive, so that the assembler is no longer
expecting 64-bit instructions to be used by the time that the ".arch
i386" directive is encountered.

The semantics of the assembler's .align directive vary by CPU
architecture. For the ARM builds, it specifies a power of two rather
than a number of bytes. This currently leads to the .einfo entries
(which do not appear in the final binary) having an alignment of 256
bytes for the ARM builds.
Fix by switching to the GNU-specific directive .balign, which is
consistent across architectures

Move most arch/i386 files to arch/x86, and adjust the contents of the
Makefiles and the include/bits/*.h headers to reflect the new
locations.
This patch makes no substantive code changes, as can be seen using a
rename-aware diff (e.g. "git show -M5").
This patch does not make the pcbios platform functional for x86_64; it
merely allows it to compile without errors.
