Add get_*architecture() API, extend find_path*() API

* Add get_architecture(), get_primary_architecture(),
  get_secondary_architectures(), guess_architecture_for_path() to get
  the caller's architecture, the primary architecture, all secondary
  architectures, or the architecture associated with a specified path
  respectively.
* Rename the find_path*() functions to find_path*_etc() and add an
  optional architecture parameter. Add simplified find_path*()
  functions.
* BPathFinder: Add FindPath[s]() versions with an architecture
  parameter.
