So far, the main subject of cross-compiles was to cross compile from one
OS to another (e.g. {linux,osx} -> android), but there are a few useful
cases where the OS doesn't change, and, with --host being guessed, we
can just have developers pass --target=$cpu instead of a complete
target triplet. This can be useful to do x86 Linux builds on x86-64
Linux hosts, or aarch64 Windows builds on x86-64 Windows hosts.
