b86e62d30d llvm: support cross compilation with useLLVM flag
You can build (partially) with LLVM toolchain using the useLLVM flag.
This works like so:

  nix-build -A hello --arg crossSystem '{ system =
    "aarch64-unknown-linux-musl"; useLLVM = true }'

also don’t separate debug info in lldClang

It doesn’t work currently with that setup hook. Missing build-id?

9c8fd41224 treewide: add emulator to platform
You can use stdenv.hostPlatform.emulator to get an executable that
runs cross-built binaries. This could be any emulator. For instance,
we use QEMU to emulate Linux targets and Wine to emulate Windows
targets. To work with qemu, we need to support custom targets.

I’ve reworked the cross tests in pkgs/test/cross to use this
functionality.

Also, I’ve used talloc to cross-execute with the emulator. There
appears to be a cross-execute for all waf builds. In the future, it
would be nice to set this for all waf builds.

Adds stdenv.hostPlatform.qemuArch attrbute to get the qemuArch for
each platform.
