Added ARM choices to enable --disable-multilib

Added info on choosing everything that's needed in order to use
--disable-multilib:
float, mode, fpu, and arch (already had abi).

15 <para os="a">During the building of the cross-compile tools, you will need to
16 set a few variables that will be dependent on your particular needs.
17 You will need to select the target triplet for the target architecture, the CPU
18 endianess, the CPU architecture, the CPU mode, the CPU floating point hardware
19 availability, and (if available) the type of floating point hardware. If you
20 do not know what values can be chosen for each of these, you can use the
21 tables at the bottom of this page as a reference.</para>
