Compile both `aarch64-postgres-linux-gnu` and `x86_64-postgres-linux-gnu` in `run` script #18

This is probably not ideal -- For this to succeed, you need to set something like

# if on x86_64
CARGO_TARGET_AARCH64_POSTGRES_LINUX_GNU_LINKER=aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc \
    ./run <cmd>

# if on aarch64
CARGO_TARGET_X86_64_POSTGRES_LINUX_GNU_LINKER=x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc \
    ./run <cmd>

Because cargo can't link us for the non-host architecture (even if we used a linker capable of cross compilation it needs to know where the cross glibc is).

I'm going to make this a bit more automatic later on this weekend (so that it doesn't try to cross compile if it clearly won't work), but... it does get rather complex for a shell script. Would really love to do it in something better.

Do we care about users aside from plrust at all (aside from local testing)? Some of this would be easier to manage from inside there.

Converted to draft becuase I'll be changing it a bit more.

Essentially no.

This will probably have to happen later.
