It does seem like a good idea to have some sort of testing in place.

Perhaps build upon debian-hexagon-cross.docker to set up a cross-build environment for 
loongarch.  Add just enough more that it's good for a full cross-build of qemu (glib and 
pixman?).

Like the hexagon docker image, the build time would be substantial, so we'd push a golden 
copy to the qemu-project repo.
