To add arduino avrdude-packing github action to create binary for Linux, macOS and Windows

[mcuee]

I think @umbynos has done a good job in avrdude-packing project to be able to build static linking version for Linux, macOS and Windows (mingw32). It may be a good idea to adopt it as an addition to the current github actions.

[mcuee]

I have done a simplified version here (not yet for Windows) and only one patch is needed.

It is running okay against current avrdude git main.

For MSYS2 MinGW, there is one more patch needed. But I have not figured out how to get Windows MinGW build working.

The error is rather strange and point out potential issue with the way ncurses package is built in the container.

For Linux and macOS, only one patch is needed. The only question is whether it is acceptable for avrdude project or not.
https://github.com/arduino/avrdude-packing/blob/main/patches/0006-Cmake-add-libtinfo-and-libncurses-as-dependencies.patch

I think as it is it can not be accepted because it will not work with MSVC build.

@mariusgreuel or other CMake experts may be able to figure out a way to modify it to be suitable to be adopted.

[mcuee]

For MinGW, there is one more patch required, which is also not acceptable as it is. But again @mariusgreuel or other CMake experts may be able to figure out a way to modify it to be suitable to be adopted.

It seems to me the issuse is that the current CMake file do not work well with MinGW cross build (WIN32 not defined?)

Indeed @umbynos has figured out the issue and find the solution to bump up ncurses version.

• Remove libusb-win32 and bump ncurses arduino/crossbuild#8

Take note the Arduino Cross-build container is here and uses GNU Affero General Public License v3.0. So it should be acceptable to use.
