[yocto] Target CPU architectures that Yocto Project Support

[Ricardo Ramirez]

Thanks for the reply, Khem!

What steps should I follow to be able to verify the build I put together
for SPARCv9 works (or doesn't)?

I realize it is a pretty non-conventional (newbie like) question but I'd
like to follow a methodological procedure to validate the build.

I appreciate your answer.
