Issue body

### What needs to get done | New environment variable | Deprecated name| | ------------- | ------------- | | `CRAFT_ARCH_BUILD_ON` | n/a | | `CRAFT_ARCH_BUILD_FOR` | `CRAFT_TARGET_ARCH` | | `CRAFT_ARCH_TRIPLET_BUILD_ON` | n/a | | `CRAFT_ARCH_TRIPLET_BUILD_FOR` | `CRAFT_ARCH_TRIPLET` | The deprecated environment variables will continue to work, but craft-parts should log a warning when a deprecated name is used. ### Why it needs to get done - To give users access to architectures data when defining override scripts and environments. - To align with the `build-on`/`build-for` naming convention
