The upstream crash Makefile CONF_TARGET_ARCH mapping (used when
CROSS_COMPILE is set) enumerates most of OE supported arches
but omits 32-bit arm. Building with CROSS_COMPILE=arm-*
therefore aborts at Makefile parse time:
Makefile:75: *** The current Arch(arm) does not support cross compilation. Stop.
ARM is already a valid crash target (defs.h/configure.c), so add a patch
mapping the normalized "arm" arch to CONF_TARGET_ARCH=ARM like every
other supported arch.
Verified by cross building crash for qemuarm (arm-yoe-linux-gnueabi-):

Commit bf4b626 ("ci: build world only once per machine and distro family") gated the world build to the nodistro and qcom-distro-catchall distro families on the default kernel. This assumes every machine has a qcom-distro-catchall entry to represent the qcom-distro family in the world coverage, but qcom-armv7a does not: its only qcom-distro-family matrix entry is qcom-armv7a/qcom-distro (building qcom-multimedia-image via ci/qcom-distro-multimedia-image.yml). As a result qcom-armv7a lost all world coverage that pulls in meta-openembedded. Its surviving world build (qcom-armv7a/nodistro) uses the base.yml nodistro configuration, which does not include meta-oe, so recipes only reachable through meta-oe are no longer world-built for 32-bit arm. This masked a real breakage: crash 9.0.2 (bumped in qualcomm-linux#2750, thirteen days after bf4b626) fails to cross compile for 32-bit arm, but it is only pulled into the armv7 graph via meta-qcom's initramfs-test-full-image, which is only built as part of a world build. meta-qcom CI stayed green while meta-qcom-distro CI (which does run world on armv7) went red on unrelated PRs. Treat qcom-armv7a/qcom-distro as the distro-family world build for that machine so meta-oe recipes are world-built for 32-bit arm again, while keeping the single-world-build-per-family reduction for every other machine.

Re-enable world build for qcom-armv7 (which got disabled by mistake as part of bf4b626), and bring the crash related fix from qualcomm-linux/meta-qcom-distro#411 as initramfs-test-full-image depends on it (when meta-oe is available).
