Description
MASON_ANDROID_ABI currently uses a different naming convention than the [official naming convention](http://developer.android.com/ndk/guides/abis.html) for Android ABIs, which is needlessly confusing. The values should just be the same as the official names.
Concretely, this means the following `MASON_ANDROID_ABI` values should be renamed:
- `arm-v5` ⇢ `armeabi`
- `arm-v7` ⇢ `armeabi-v7a`
- `arm-v8` ⇢ `arm64-v8a`
- `x86-64` ⇢ `x86_64`
- `mips-64` ⇢ `mips64`
`x86` and `mips` are already the same as the official names.
