Related to rakudo/rakudo#3996. This adds support for prebuilt binary releases to include the toolchain in their name. Older archives which don't specify their toolchain are still recognized. The minimal API at /dl/rakudo is extended to also tell the toolchain of the respective file. If there are prebuilt archives with the same platform, but different toolchains provided the API will list the following files first:
On Windows: MSVC
On MacOS: clang
On Linux: GCC
This is relevant for rakubrew which will use the first file presented to it by the API.
This prepares us for releasing prebuilt archives with different toolchains for the same platform. The most interest currently seems to be in GCC on Windows.
