linux-image: Remove undocumented $KERNEL_ARCH variable from hook environment 

Maintainer scripts generated by kernel-package pass an environment
variable $KERNEL_ARCH to hook scripts.  This is undocumented but seems
to be the architecture string that the kernel will report
(e.g. through 'uname -m').

However, for the past few years our maintainer scripts have set it to
the source architecture name instead.  Since no-one reported this bug,
I don't think anyone depends on it.  codesearch didn't find any users
either.  So remove it.
