buildstrap: execute build-bcc.sh on the host using chroot #19

Closed qais-yousef closed 5 years ago

When chrooting into a debian image that was created for a different arch the system will look like it's executing on that arch and we can do the compilation directly from this env as if we were running natively on that arch. Debian recognizes the arch difference and might be using qemu directly behind the scene. Not entirely sure on the exact mechanisms deployed here but have used this trick several times in the past.

Also fix a typo s/be/we/
