Okay, lets keep it that way then! We don't want to repeat the alias madness that took place with x86-64 in the early days.

When I wrote [236d6f5](https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/commit/236d6f5a2b924266b1249a82875b595e8758c52b), I followed the mapping structure for `amd64` and `x86_64`, but I only intended for it to be that if `arm64` is used in a spec or as inputs, it would produce the correct `aarch64` rpm. Beyond that, I don't particularly care.

Translating arm64 into aarch64 if encountered seems like a reasonable compromise to me conceptually. How feasible that is I can't say offhand, it's *ages* since I last touched any rpmrc stuff.
