Remove long-deprecated "arm" fallback

This fallback is used when we filter the manifest list by the user-provided platform and find no matches such that we match the previous Docker behavior (before it supported variant matching).  This has been deprecated long enough that I think it's time we finally stop supporting this weird fallback, especially since it makes for buggy behavior like `docker pull --platform linux/arm/v5 alpine:3.16` leading to a `linux/arm/v6` image being pulled (I specified a variant, every manifest list entry specifies a variant, so clearly the only behavior I as a user could reasonably expect is an error that `linux/arm/v5` is not supported, but instead I get an explicitly incompatible image despite doing everything I as a user can to prevent that situation).
