Public bug reported:

[ Impact ]

 * There is no user impact on this bug because the package is in the
process of being backported to the affected releases, thus never
previously available to users.

 * This upload restricts to AMD64 and ARM64 only, for which we didn't
have FTBFS events, zeroing out potential future regressions. Those are
the only architectures supported by Windows and WSL.

[ Test Plan ]

 * Try to build the package in the archive. Previously it would fail for the 
architectures mentioned above.
 * After this patch building for those architectures won't be attempted.
 * For the remaining architectures (AMD64 and ARM64) the package should just 
build successfully.

[ Where problems could occur ]

 * The only possible problem introduced by this patch is the need for porting 
into the excluded architectures.
 * That can only happen if Windows and WSL are ported as well.

[ Other Info ]

 * This bug is complementary to LP #2107145. When accepted into the -proposed 
pockets for the first time, the package failed to build from source:
    - For Jammy it failed on ARMHF
    - For Focal it failed on RISCV64

 * None of those architectures are really supported because this package is 
meant to only run on WSL instances, thus only runnable in architectures where 
Windows runs, currently AMD64 and ARM64 only.
    - It's unlikely that Windows will be ported to either of the architectures 
above in the lifetime of the LTSes in question.
