FWIW, skia certainly isn't android only and, at least for the purposes of
getting the validation side of things up and running, could be run on a
non-android build (Jammy is likely doing something like this for his work,
though not oriented at abrek at the moment).  Of course, I could be
over-simplifying here ;-).

cheers,
Jesse
