I'm don't know about all the possible ways we build containers in
Fedora, but intrinsically, there's certainly no reason to require an
amd64 kernel to build a 32-bit image. (*)

(*) E.g.
dnf -y --releasever=31 --installroot=/var/lib/machines/f28-32 \
--disablerepo='*' --enablerepo=fedora --enablerepo=updates install \
systemd passwd dnf fedora-release vim-minimal --forcearch=i686
still works.
Sure, but thats not how we make official containers.
Also, what about the i686 tree on mirrors? Not producing that would save
a fair bit of compose time...on the other hand, if we do produce it,
users could upgrade from old releases.
