RFR: Add s390(x) detection to platform.m4

[Dmitry Samersoff]

Omair,

It might make sense to set

 VAR_CPU to ESA_390

 VAR_CPU_ARCH to ESA_390 or ever to ESA_3xx

for both s390 and s390x.

s370 diverged over time to a variety of more or less compatible series
and it's possible the same happens (if not already happened) with s390.
