[Feature Request] - Cross-compilation armv7 artifacts on CI

[wxlg1117]

Description

Create a workflow to Cross-compilation armv7 artifacts directly on GitHub (manual launch).

i try: rustup target add armv7-unknown-linux-musleabihf and download linker from https://musl.cc/armv7l-linux-musleabihf-cross.tgz;

[root@hk2 termscp]# rustup show
