[PATCH] gitlab-ci/custom-runners: Disable -static-pie for ubuntu-20.04-aarch64

[Richard Henderson]

The project has reached the magic size at which we see

/usr/aarch64-linux-gnu/lib/libc.a(init-first.o): in function 
`__libc_init_first':
(.text+0x10): relocation truncated to fit: R_AARCH64_LD64_GOTPAGE_LO15 against \
symbol `__environ' defined in .bss section in 
/usr/aarch64-linux-gnu/lib/libc.a(environ.o)
/usr/bin/ld: (.text+0x10): warning: too many GOT entries for -fpic, please 
recompile with -fPIC

The bug has been reported upstream, but in the meantime there is
nothing we can do except build a non-pie executable.

Irritatingly, once this is fixed, we're still in a broken state because
we're now picking up an x86_64 cross-compiler, without all of the
required static libraries:

    Cross compilers
    aarch64                      : cc
    arm                          : arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc
    i386                         : i686-linux-gnu-gcc
    mips64el                     : mips64el-linux-gnuabi64-gcc
    mipsel                       : mipsel-linux-gnu-gcc

    x86_64                       : x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc

where we hadn't done so just 4 days ago:

    i386                         : i686-linux-gnu-gcc
    riscv64                      : riscv64-linux-gnu-gcc
    s390x                        : s390x-linux-gnu-gcc

Alex? I think you're the only one who would know how this host
is supposed to be configured for gitlab...

I guess I'm not going to let this affect the release, but we
do have quite a number of annoyingly consistent failures now.
We should either fix them or disable them.
