[Bug 991] New: appchk should add VSX_NAME arch, VSX_SYS

All of the checkers used for certification - appchk, archk, cmdchk, libchk,
pkgchk should supply the VSX_NAME and VSX_SYS lines which are expected by the
validation tools.  Strictly speaking, VSX_NAME and VSX_SYS don't have much
meaning outside of the runtime test which uses vsxgen, but these have evolved
into our defacto standard for extracting system under test (VSX_SYS) and test
version and architecture (VSX_NAME).

Current versions of the tools supply no VSX_SYS and have no good way to obtain
it since that comes from the interview questions under lsb_runtime_test and
lsb_test_vsw4.  It could perhaps be synthesized from uname.

Current tests do supply VSX_NAME, but don't add the test architecture.  The
format expected by tjreport (which I believe is too restrictive) is:

30||VSX_NAME=LSB Certification Version 3.0.0-2 (ia64)

In other words, "magic string" version architecture.  The current checkers are
adding lines of the form:

30||VSX_NAME=checkername version

In other words, no "magic string" and no architecture.
