If you're content to use a compiler from a package you can save a lot
of time by building with `CROSS_TOOLCHAIN=llvm13` and
`WITHOUT_TOOLCHAIN=yes`. Or, instead of WITHOUT_TOOLCHAIN perhaps
`WITHOUT_CLANG=yes`, `WITHOUT_LLD=yes` and `WITHOUT_LLDB=yes`.

Cirrus-CI builds CROSS_TOOLCHAIN and WITHOUT_TOOLCHAIN to reduce build
time significantly, given that the vast majority of CI build/test runs
are not targeting compiler changes.
