buildworld buildkernel is always done on amd64 for all the official
builds as I understand. No use of quemu is required for this.
https://ci.freebsd.org/ allows looking at the build logs and such
for the ci build activity, not for the release/snapshot builds.

It is ports being turned into packages that has the issue of wanting
to avoid qemu use and so that only armv6 builds ports->packages via
amd64. https://pkg-status.freebsd.org/?all=1&type=package allows
looking at the logs and such for this.
