This is a scenario that is possible with vcpkg but isn't explicitly called out in a tutorial in our docs. Also see: https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/discussions/39492

Note that all the android stuff is cross-building. (With extra pain on windows hosts, with msys2 in the middle, and the vpckg triplets approach making host tools unaware of target conventions. Most visible in icu.)
