The internal enum jdk.internal.util.Architecture does not provide information about the big or little endianness or the address size (64 or 32 bits). The endian-ness and address size are intrinsic to the architecture.
The values of the enum are extended to separately identify the big endian and little-endian uses of the ISA.
For example, `PPC64` and `PPC64LE` for the big and little-endian versions.
The enum values directly reflect the build-time artifacts and resulting executables.
This information about an architecture will make the enum more useful especially to identify a target platform in a cross-platform use case. A method is added to map well known aliases for the platforms to the Architecture enum.
