[WIP] build: Use specific cross-compilers instead of multilib one #22456

   This PR replaces the g++-multilib compiler with arch-specific cross-compilers for x86_64 and i386 hosts.

   Motivation:

   1. The g++-multilib package conflicts with arch-specific cross-compiler packages. That means it is not possible to cross compile for i386 and other platforms on x86_64 system with the same set of installed packages.
   2. The g++-multilib package is not available for the aarch64 arch. That means it is not possible to cross-compile for x86_64 in a Docker container on Apple Silicon based systems.

   The actual config.guess output may differ from the triplets that are
   documented in depends/README.md.
