This series has been written considering:
- https://www.redhat.com/archives/libosinfo/2019-February/msg00247.html
- a similar patch will be done for medias

Having a fallback or a simple "unknown" architecture type that will be
treated as fallback is, indeed, something needed. In this patch series
I've made sure that if we take this approach, we'll always consider the
"unknown" as the last option to match in order to avoid distros patching
osinfo-db on their side and having it clashing with the "unknown"
definition we may have upstream.
