glibc: include ldd and other scripts in cross-builds

Browse Source 
Since the script interpreters are not patched (anymore?), no reference
to any shell is generated by the scripts in glibc's `bin` output:

```
$ nix-store --query --references /nix/store/nmfj3a2k2kr2lypndn37x6qbd8537f9b-glibc-riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu-2.33-50-bin
/nix/store/afgfd3vl3x5zx89awn3fjayn83yl9vcy-glibc-riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu-2.33-50
/nix/store/nmfj3a2k2kr2lypndn37x6qbd8537f9b-glibc-riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu-2.33-50-bin
```

This means that it's safe to include the scripts in glibc's bin output
even in cross builds. One interesting improvement for the future could
be to split these scripts into a separate derivation and properly patch
their script interpreter (currently they are using impure /bin/sh).
