[BUG] Can not compile native C programs on Ubuntu-x86

[melonedo]

Describe the bug
The simple cmake -B build && cmake --build build method can not compile binary for native use. if specify -m32 flag, gcc can not compile a simple program; if we specify -mnative, the binary can not be used because "wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64".

To Reproduce
This PR contains scripts to build such a binary (and fails).

Specifically, the build command: https://github.com/JuliaInterop/Clang.jl/blob/b76e9ae49b5ccb0316f9d1d61ece5a3ee545b258/test/test_bitfield.jl#L7-L25

I do not know how to put that into a workflow file however.

Expected behavior
Like any other platforms, compile native binary for testing.

This doesn't seem like a problem with setup-julia but rather with the GitHub Actions environment itself, since Julia seems to be installed just fine (otherwise it wouldn't even run the tests). It's probably better to ask on Zulip, Slack or Discourse. Feel free to reopen the issue if you think it's a bug with setup-julia but it doesn't look like one to me.

I don't know anything about cmake or gcc either, my best guess is that there might be a misunderstanding about the x86 flag. Setting the x86 architecture input in setup-julia installs Julia's 32-bit binaries. However, the architecture of the GitHub Actions runner/environment itself is x64.
