[mk-sbuild] treats armhf as foreign to arm64

[Adam Conrad]

[ SRU Justification ]
qemu-debootstrap is rather fragile and doesn't always work as expected, and mk-sbuild treats armhf as foreign to arm64 when it shouldn't, thus forcing the use of qemu-debootstrap. This causes issues in production for Canonical Jenkins slaves trying to run mk-sbuild --arch=armhf on arm64 hosts.

[ Test Case ]
Run mk-build --arch=armhf on an arm64 machine and confirm that is doesn't use the --foreign flag to debootstrap and that it succeeds.

[ Regression Potential ]
Pretty much nil.
