No more TARGET macros

John Ericson requested to merge Ericson2314/ghc:purge-target-from-Config.hs into master

Do not directly hard-code the target at all. "Directly" is unfortunately the key word: there are still some suspicious usages of headers like of MachDeps.h in primops.txt.pp which taint the build with a specific target.
