I made use of that in the CheriBSD toolchain when creating [[ https://github.com/CTSRD-CHERI/cheribuild/blob/master/pycheribuild/projects/cross/llvm.py#L499 | symlinked binaries to easily build for different ABIs]] such as `cheribsd-riscv64-hybrid-clang++` and `cheribsd-riscv64-purecap-clang-cpp`. It appears this previously only worked if the prefix did not start with a valid triple (which is why I put the OS before the architecture). I think it would also be nice if the whole prefix was checked even if it starts with a valid triple, but this does not need to be changed in this patch (haven't looked at it in detail so this might actually work).

Not triple, sorry. Target prefix taken from `ClangNameParts.TargetPrefix`.
