Toolchains: Better out-of-the-box support for the Intel C++ compiler
- Make sure it gets auto-detected on macOS, where the -dumpmachine option, while present and documented, doesn't print anything. - Do not call it "Linux ICC", as it's also available on macOS. There is no danger of confusion with the MSVC-based variant, as the respective UI elements are not present on Windows.
