You can already cross-compile Flatpaks. As long as your qemu-static is
correctly setup, it should be indistinguishable from a real machine.

This is already used in Builder to cross-compile.

If the goal is to cross-compile using an ARM toolchain running natively
on x86_64, I think that might be out of scope, but I'll let somebody
else make the call on that.
