ninja @1.10.2_0+universal build issues on Big Sur Intel

[kencu (Ken)]

There are two issues when building ninja universal, using the muniversal PortGroup as it does now.

1. configure.py: error: option --host: invalid choice: 'aarch64-apple-darwin20.3.0'

This option is set by the muniveral PG but to value the script does not accept.

2. :info:build sh: ./ninja: Bad CPU type in executable

The portfile has been written to bootstrap ninja and then rebuild ninja with itself. This is not possible if the arch is not runnable on the given os.

I am having one of those sessions where trac will not allow me to attach files to the ticket.

For now, here is a snippet around the first error:

I fixed this three different ways, but all were unacceptable.
