[Pkg-rust-maintainers] Bug#1003070: rust-generator should not claim to build on "any" as upstream only supports amd64/arm64

Package: librust-generator-dev Version: 0.6.20-3 Currently the package
panics explicitly when building in arch other than amd64/arm64, see
https://github.com/Xudong-Huang/generator-rs/blob/master/build.rs#L26. It
would be better to follow the upstream to build only in arch amd64/arm64
instead of trying on all archs.

Another reason to not try with all arch is that, the package generates asm
code which depends on the arch. Even if the package builds successfully on
an unsupported arch, the behavior may not be right as upstream never
verifies the generated asm code.

Thanks,
Regards.
