Backporting 8231a0e632405 (s390: Add z17 elf platform) as requested I
noticed that Jammy was missing support for z16 too. To fix I backported
also 6203ac3029784 (s390: add z16 elf platform).

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  Glibc arch level is not recognized correctly on IBM z17 instances.

  Add detection for machine types 0x9175 and 0x9176 and set ELF platform
  name to z17.

  [ Fix ]

  Backport the following commit from upstream:
  - 8231a0e63240 s390: Add z17 elf platform

  [ Test Plan ]

  Boot on a z17 instance and execute:
  $ LD_SHOW_AUXV=1 id | grep AT_PLATFORM

  This must return z17.

  [ Where Problems Could Occur ]

  The fix just adds some cases on a switch statement,
  the regression potential therefore is really low.
