make.conf.5: add CPUTYPE?= note from UPDATING
Cross-compilation needs CPUTYPE to be set with ?= to be overideable via
make targets. This has historically been mentioned in the FOOTNOTES of
UPDATING. Note that in the CPUTYPE documentation in make.conf(5) for
discoverability. Leave it in UPDATING for now to create no regression in
the doc there.
