Add new redhat triple

[Cody Maloney]

Where / how should I add a test? (Browsing through the existing tests I
don't see one which looks like the right place to add another triple and
go).

It's possible this has a little to do with how the particular GCC package
was built but that is using a standard RPM spec file just updated for
4.8.2, so I suspect others might come across this and wonder why no c++
headers are found.

Is there any particular reason why the installation detection triple
finding code uses an explicit white-list (And then possibly a great many
stat call than doing a directory walk and then filter / scan for critical
attributes? It seems like that would make it more likely LLVM find
something compatible and try to just work if possible (even in the presence
of new triples). Since triples follow a fairly standard structure, it seems
like a lot of the LLVM triple parsing code could just be used to match the
provided architecture triple (rather than explicit whitelist).
