Pkg: Cross compilation mac -> linux

[fezsteve]

HI,

Specifying an arm linux target seems to make pkg want to download a macos equivalent, which of course doesn't exist. It then tries (and fails to build an arm macos binary.

Is it possible to stop pkg even worrying about the macos-arm target, as I don't want it anyway!

As workaround I am using docker

$ docker run -it --rm -w /src -v $(pwd):/src node:10.4 bash

and inside of container I just run

> npm install --global pkg
> pkg -t latest-linux-armv7 .

Sadly this seems to still be an issue. Can't compile from Windows to linux-armv7 because it tries to incorrectly build for win-armv7 instead.
