tune-core2: Replace -mtune=generic with -mtune=core2

-march specifies which ISA to use. -mtune specifies which cpu-type to
optimize instruction ordering for, but not which ISA to use. There are
times when it may make sense to specify mtune=generic and use a more
specific march, such as core2, but the opposite makes little sense at
all: use cpu-type specific ISA, but order the instructions
generically. While the -mtune is implied by -march, gcc does not verify
it is using -mtune=core2 with:

    gcc -Q -march=core2 --help=target

Explicitly specify -mtune=core2 to be sure.

Add a comment header describing the CPUs targeted by this tune file.
