Allow fetch-configlet to:

  • download the existing riscv64 Linux asset
  • support future assets for e.g. FreeBSD/NetBSD/OpenBSD
  • support low-priority, but theoretically possible future assets for powerpc/powerpc64/powerpc64le/sparc64/etc

Working towards my suggestion in #805:

I think we shouldn't hardcode the available binaries in the fetch scripts. Instead, we should try to download the configlet release for the user's machine, and error if the asset does not exist. Then we can add assets to the configlet releases without updating the fetch scripts on every track. That'll also make the fetch script support riscv64 Linux.

Maybe.

For example, this would work for these `uname -s` outputs:

- FreeBSD
- NetBSD
- OpenBSD
Configlet may never have releases for these. But it's one of the main
remaining architecture names that we'd upload with different names than
the `uname -m` output.

Add support for them now, to avoid an extra Exercism-wide PR for the
fetch scripts later.
