'Win32' as an alias of 'x86' #26
Description
There are quite a few bits during the setup and management of windows projects where your two options for architectures are Win32 and x64 instead of the more logical x86 and x64.
Is it possible that the arch parameter for this script could be made to also accept Win32 as an alias of x86 (and Win64 as x64 while we're at it)? This change would simplify some github actions scripts I have by a fair amount.

The parameters are meant to mirror MSVC's batch script to be more familiar (and easier to implement), but I see no reason why they must be limited to the values supported by the MSVC's batch script.
If that makes your life easier, I'd add them. The architecture names are a clusterfuck anyway, I don't see how a couple more would make things worse.

I've just published
v1.6.0(aliased asv1) which should now acceptwin32andwin64as aliases forx86andx64respectively. Matching is case-insensitive sowin32,Win32,WIN32are all the same.ilammy commentedon Mar 17, 2021
Since this seems to be working and @PazerOP reacted with “👍”, I guess we're done here.
