cmake(): allow setting HOST_CPU for cross-compilation

Git's regular Makefile mentions that HOST_CPU should be defined when cross-compiling Git: https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/blob/37796bca76ef4180c39ee508ca3e42c0777ba444/Makefile#L438-L439

This is then used to set the GIT_HOST_CPU variable when compiling Git: https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/blob/37796bca76ef4180c39ee508ca3e42c0777ba444/Makefile#L1337-L1341

Then, when the user runs `git version --build-options`, it returns that value: https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/blob/37796bca76ef4180c39ee508ca3e42c0777ba444/help.c#L658

This commit adds the same functionality to the CMake configuration. Users can now set -DHOST_CPU= to set the target architecture.
