Prompted by PR #<!-- -->149652, this patch changes the Solaris/SPARC default to -mcpu, matching both the Oracle Studio 12.6 compilers and GCC 16: [[PATCH] Default to -mcpu=ultrasparc3 on Solaris/SPARC](https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2025-July/690191.html). This is equivalent to enabling the `vis2` feature.

Tested on `sparcv9-sun-solaris2.11` and `sparc64-unknown-linux-gnu`.
