ba52ae5048 treewide: isArm -> isAarch32
Following legacy packing conventions, `isArm` was defined just for
32-bit ARM instruction set. This is confusing to non packagers though,
because Aarch64 is an ARM instruction set.

The official ARM overview for ARMv8[1] is surprisingly not confusing,
given the overall state of affairs for ARM naming conventions, and
offers us a solution. It divides the nomenclature into three levels:

```
ISA:             ARMv8   {-A, -R, -M}
                 /    \
Mode:     Aarch32     Aarch64
             |         /   \
Encoding:   A64      A32   T32
```

At the top is the overall v8 instruction set archicture. Second are the
two modes, defined by bitwidth but differing in other semantics too, and
buttom are the encodings, (hopefully?) isomorphic if they encode the
same mode.

The 32 bit encodings are mostly backwards compatible with previous
non-Thumb and Thumb encodings, and if so we can pun the mode names to
instead mean "sets of compatable or isomorphic encodings", and then
voilà we have nice names for 32-bit and 64-bit arm instruction sets
which do not use the word ARM so as to not confused either laymen or
experienced ARM packages.

c3da83cd40 v8_3_16_14: fix OS X build
Issues addressed:
- xcode build failed with
    ... was built for newer OSX version (10.10) than being linked (10.5)
  fixed by setting GYP mac deployment target to the nix value
- a gyp bug when SDKROOT is not set (and removed an orphaned gyp patch
- path to python in generated gyp-mac-tool
- noisy build due to static assert warnings, by silencing warnings
- use of system xcodebuild and libtool replaced by darwin.cctools

b27932a65b v8-3_16_14 tweaks for the build on darwin
The build was originally failing due to a missing libtool. Trying to add
the buildInput "libtool" did not work out, since a few command line
arguments are not supported. I've applied the same workaround as for
"xcodebuild".

The second change is about the install step, where the path of
"libv8.dylib" was just slightly different.
