Bug 1576079 - Only build binast when building Spidermonkey standalone.

No description provided.

Bug 1454613 enabled binast (binsource back then) so that automation
would catch trivial build errors. The caveat is that it incurs build
times for everyone, while the tool is not even used during the build:
the result of running it is checked in in the tree.

Ideally, it would be built in entirely separate tasks, but the overhead
of setting up a task (checking out the repository, downloading
toolchains, etc.) is actually large enough that it's overkill to build
completely separately.

However, it makes sense to limit to spidermonkey standalone builds.
