[Bug 1103271] [NEW] libsemanage: Add crossbuild support

[Wookey]

Public bug reported:

libsemanage has no cross-build support. It builds for the wrong arch and
fails to find libraries in multiarch directories.

This patch makes it use the HOST arch compiler and linker and multiarch
libary paths, and also fixes an issue with the package not running make
clean properly. I have a separate patch adding build-profile information
which cannot be uploaded yet.
