Linux: Drop ppc32 (32-bit PowerPC) architecture support

Browse Source 
This was added together with `ppc64le` in #54490, but seemingly only for the
purpose of getting it to compile on a Linux distro that aims at maximizing
support for all CPU architectures.

I don't think anyone has ever _run_ Godot on a `ppc32` system (do those even
support OpenGL ES 3.0?) and so I don't think we should aim to support it.

Debian dropped support for its PowerPC (`ppc32`) arch in Debian 9, released
in 2017.

Returns the name of the CPU architecture the Godot binary was built for. Possible return values include [code]"x86_64"[/code], [code]"x86_32"[/code], [code]"arm64"[/code], [code]"arm32"[/code], [code]"rv64"[/code], [code]"riscv"[/code], [code]"ppc64"[/code], [code]"ppc"[/code], [code]"wasm64"[/code], and [code]"wasm32"[/code].

To detect whether the current build is 64-bit, or the type of architecture, don't use the architecture name. Instead, use [method OS.has_feature] to check for the [code]"64"[/code] feature tag, or tags such as [code]"x86"[/code] or [code]"arm"[/code]. See the [url=$DOCS_URL/tutorials/export/feature_tags.html]Feature Tags[/url] documentation for more details.
[b]Note:[/b] This method does [i]not[/i] return the name of the system's CPU architecture (like [method OS.get_processor_name]). For example, when running an [code]x86_32[/code] Godot binary on an [code]x86_64[/code] system, the returned value will still be [code]"x86_32"[/code].
