  [WPE][cross-toolchain-helper] REGRESSION(311591@main): bitbake builds 
toolchain during determineArchitecture() with no visible output
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=315634

Reviewed by Carlos Alberto Lopez Perez.

determineArchitecture() runs `cmake --system-information` via
cross-toolchain-helper --cross-toolchain-run-cmd to learn the target
architecture, with stdout piped into perl. When the cross toolchain has
not yet been built, the helper transparently triggers a multi-hour
`bitbake -c populate_sdk` first, and all of its progress output
disappears into that pipe - the perl reader only keeps the single
CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR line, so the user sees no output for hours.

Pre-call cross-toolchain-helper --build-toolchain with stdio inherited
from the parent so the bitbake output reaches the terminal. The
helper's build_toolchain() short-circuits when the toolchain already
exists, so this adds no measurable cost on subsequent runs.
