We already support pure 32-bit and 64-bit-by-default multilib build.
With HOST_PREFER_32_BIT we can build 32-bit-by-default multilib build.
This will be lest disruptive during the period we transition to
64-bit-by-default.

This change basically ported our target multilib to the host side.
It supports 2 host build modes: x86 and x86_64 multilib build.
For now you need to set "BUILD_HOST_64bit=true" to switch to x86_64
multilib build. Later we'll default to x86_64 build and have a flag
to force 32-bit only build, which may be needed by SDK build.
In host module definition, like in target ones, you can use the
following
LOCAL variables to set up multilib configuration:
LOCAL_MULTILIB: can be "both", "first", "32" or "64".
It also supports the same set of arch or 32-vs-64 specific LOCAL
variables.
By default, it builds only for the first arch.
To keep path compatibility, in x86_64 build files are still output to
out/host/linux-x86; Both 32-bit and 64-bit executables are in
out/host/linux-86/bin;
In x86_64 build 32-bit shared libraries are installed to
out/host/linux-x86/lib32
and 64-bit shared libraries are installed to out/host/linux-x86/lib;
32-bit object files are output to out/host/linux-x86/obj32 and 64-bit
object files
are output to out/host/linux-x86/obj.

Some executables will need to be built for both 32-bit and 64-bit.
For linker/linker64, debuggerd/debuggerd64, and a few more, they
will be installed in the same path (/system/bin), but with different
filenames. Allow the module to specify LOCAL_MODULE_STEM_32 and
LOCAL_MODULE_STEM_64 to name the two versions.
