"Build-Architecture-Indep" might also work and is visually similar to
the already existing "Build-Depends-Indep" and "Build-Conflicts-Indep"
fields.

I think allowing multiple architectures is more technically correct: not
restricting the build to specific architectures implies "any" so we
allow muliple architectures already.

For the implementation we might want to have a priority list. The first
architecture from the priority list that is allowed in Build-Arch-Indep
(or whatever) would build the arch:all packages. The list would likely
start with amd64 or i386 so that arch:all packages without
Build-Arch-Indep would be built on amd64 (i386).
