[PATCH 2/2] This adds a way to print the host triplet

I still think it would be nice if very common tool suites like ARM could be
installed /downloaded in a pre-compiled way at least for Windows because
the  tool building process is the only thing preventing
development on Windows some(or most?) times.
xPacks is doing that (and they use CXC for the Windows toolchain too,
building it automatically for Windows on a Debian machine, see here
https://github.com/xpack-dev-tools/arm-none-eabi-gcc-xpack/releases) and
Arduino ships pre-compiled  toolchains with their software (but it's
possible to download separately as well).

Once the tool suite was available, I did not have any OS specific issues
any more.

Kind Regards
Robin
