With cross, cross-compiled builds are self-contained in a Docker container downloaded by cross; thus it is not necessary to install musl-tools, MinGW, various gcc flavors, etc. in the local environment.
Removing these installation steps from the GitHub Actions workflow simplifies the build process and marginally improves build times.
