For arm we enforce ARM mode regardless of ARM_INSTRUCTION_SET
choice from config metadata, glibc works fine with thumb2 for
armv7+ so limit the restriction to armv5 and lower, tested on
rpi3 works equally well as arm mode glibc and sheds about 0.5MB
in size for main package alone. Other glibc build packages also
gets smaller

ARM:    2696   KiB     libc6
Thumb2: 2132   KiB     libc6
