pio dependency installation on linux compiles all packages from source, ignoring wheels in pypi and piwheels

• PlatformIO Core.
  If you’ve found a bug, please provide an information below.

Configuration

Operating system:
Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye) on a Raspberry Pi 3B

PlatformIO Version (platformio --version):
6.1.5

Description of problem

When running pio remote agent start, dependencies are installed via pip. Due to

platformio-core/platformio/package/manager/core.py

Lines 150 to 151 in 6395a03

	if "linux" in systype:
	args.extend(["--no-binary", ":all:"])

all packages are ALWAYS compiled from source which is extremely slow and annoying especially on slow hardware. It ignores all wheels in both, the pypi and piwheels index.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Run pio remote agent start
2. Wait an eternity for all packages to compile
3. Have everything recompiled when pio decided to update something

Actual Results

pip compiles all packages from source.

Expected Results

pip uses wheels when available.

Workaround

Comment out both lines mentioned above. pip uses wheels for everything and installation is very fast.

Digging deeper, this change was introduced to fix #3652.

However, I managed to use the remote agent on a Raspberry Pi with the wheel of cryptography, so maybe the issue is fixed?

@ivankravets you marked this as known issue. Do you have a link to the other issue?

Is there anything I can do to help here? The issue still exists in version 6.1.6.

Now dependencies will be built on the target side. Please re-test with pio upgrade --dev. Does it work now?
