prologue/standards: rewrite LSB description
Well, somehow this paragraph has become too imprecise.
1. We don't support IA64. Both Intel and AMD uses x86_64 now, which is
referred as "AMD64" because it's first proposed by AMD. Intel
attempted to use IA64 (which is a VLIW architecture completely
different with x86_64) to compete with AMD64, but failed. Then Intel
adapted x86_64.
2. The architecture specific part belongs to Core and Desktop.
3. LFS cannot conform to both AMD64 and IA32 because we don't support
multilib. It's "or", not "and".
