libical3 fails to cross build from source. Quite recently, vapigen was
updated (#1061107) to better support cross compilation by adding a
triplet-prefixed wrapper. Using this wrapper (and the valac wrapper) is
a key ingredient to making libical3 cross buildable. As the upstream
CMakeLists.txt uses find_program directly, I propose supplying those
wrappers explicitly. In a more distant future as the wrappers become
more widely accepted, we might update the upstream build system to
prefer them over bare tools. The other aspect is running gtk-doc, which
is something that never works in cross builds. Fortunately, we can just
disable it in arch-only builds as the documentation is cleanly
separated. I verified that turning off gtk-doc does not change binary
artifacts by comparing builds for reproducibility. I'm attaching a
combined patch for your convenience.
