[PATCH] Avoid StopIteration exception for non-rtems .pc

_arch_from_arch_bsp() and _bsp_from_arch_bsp() has overly optimistic
assumptions that the argument must contain a '-'-separated field which
starts with "rtems". These functions are intended to find the target
triplet or the bsp parts of strings like "sparc-gaisler-rtems5-leon3"
and "arm-rtems6-xilinx_zynq_zc702"

But _find_installed_arch_bsps() may call _arch_from_arch_bsp() with the
name (without file extension) of any file which ends with ".pc",
including for example "expat". This triggers a StopIteration exception
when trying to find the next field after the "rtems" field, since no
"rtems" field exists to start with.

Rework these function to remove the preconditions, so that they return
None if no "rtems" field exist or if no field exists before or after the
"rtems" field.

It could be argued. based on their name, that calling these functions
with something that is not a triplet-bsp string is incorrect to start
with, but attempting to address that is not done here.

This should fix the issue discovered by David Siddons and Frank Kühndel
described in the "build failed" thread from 2023-07-23 in the
rtems-users mailing list with message-id:
<8e6c2841-ae9e-aacf-de84-e6340d20456a at embedded-brains.de>

I have tested this fix when compiling the simple quickstart application
for the sparc-gaisler-rtems5-leon3 and arm-rtems6-xilinx_zynq_zc702
targets, but I have not verified execution of the build results, this is
probably the amount of testing that I will be able to perform at the
moment.
