[issue30192] hashlib module breaks with 64-bit kernel and 32-bit user space

[Neil Schemenauer]

New submission from Neil Schemenauer:

The test in setup.py to check for SSE2 support is incorrect.  Checking that arch == x86_64 is not sufficient.  If the kernel is 64-bit but Python is compiled with a 32-bit compiler, the _blake2 module will fail to build.

The attached patch fixes this issue. I did a quick search of the x86_64 string, I don't see this mistake being made elsewhere but I imagine it could be done elsewhere.  Obviously a machine with a 64-bit kernel and 32-bit userspace is a rare as hen's teeth these days.  Still, I think it is worth fixing this bug.
