COMPATIBLE_MACHINE is used to forbid the use of a recipe or its packages
for a specific set of machines.
In some cases, it may make more sense to have the logic inverted and
have the recipe always forbidden except for hand-picked machines. Such
could be the case for pieces of software that only support some
architectures. In that scenario, it is sometimes a bit easier on the eye
and for maintenance to use the OVERRIDES mechanism but for that, a
default should be set.
COMPATIBLE_MACHINE:aarch64 = "^(aarch64)$"
COMPATIBLE_MACHINE:mips64 = "^(mips64)$"
wouldn't do much because if COMPATIBLE_MACHINE isn't set, the recipe is
assumed compatible and therefore, if no default is provided we enter
that case.
Hence, we need to add
COMPATIBLE_MACHINE = "^$"
as default so that it only matches the empty string, which isn't
possible for MACHINEOVERRIDES.
