- set the variable only for the required tests to keep simple the yml file
- use NDK 21.x until will be fixed the Stockfish static build problem
with NDK 23.x
- set the test for armv7, armv7-neon, armv8 builds:
- use armv7a-linux-androideabi21-clang++ compiler for armv7 armv7-neon
- enforce a static build
- silence the Warning for the unused compilation flag "-pie" with
the static build, otherwise the Github workflow stops
- use qemu to bench the build and get the signature
Many thanks to @pschneider1968 that made all the hard work with NDK :)

have maximal compatibility on legacy target arch, now supporting AMD Athlon
The old behavior can anyway be selected by the user if needed, for example
make -j profile-build ARCH=x86-32 sse=yes

A Windows Native Build (WNB) can be done:
- on Windows, using a recent mingw-w64 g++/clang compiler
distributed by msys2, cygwin and others
- on Linux, using mingw-w64 g++ to cross compile
Improvements:
- check for a WNB in a proper way and set a variable to simplify the code
- set the proper EXE for a WNB
- use the proper name for the mingw-w64 clang compiler
- use the static linking for a WNB
- use wine to make a PGO cross compile on Linux (also with Intel SDE)
- enable the LTO build for mingw-w64 g++ compiler
- set `lto=auto` to use the make's job server, if available, or otherwise
to fall back to autodetection of the number of CPU threads
- clean up all the temporary LTO files saved in the local directory
Tested on:
- msys2 MINGW64 (g++), UCRT64 (g++), MINGW32 (g++), CLANG64 (clang)
environments
- cygwin mingw-w64 g++
- Ubuntu 18.04 & 21.10 mingw-w64 PGO cross compile (also with Intel SDE)
