We have a longstanding bug (probably more than one of them) where packages don't build properly if the buildPlatform and hostPlatform are not equal, but yet have equal .config attributes.

The equality test for platforms was made more forgiving by

but this merely concealed the problem.

lib.systems, test.cross.sanity: add test case for #264989
72c279f 
We have several cross-compilation bugs that show up if
hostPlatform!=buildPlatform yet
hostPlatform.config==buildPlatform.config.

These bugs have appeared and disappeared as we've fiddled with the
definition of equality for platform objects.  This commit adds a
clear-cut case where they are *not* equal and never will be, so we
can test it.
