[build] build Selenium Manager Linux binaries natively and pin the Rust toolchain - #17988

• Builds x86_64 and aarch64 Linux binaries on matching native GitHub runners.
• Pins CI Cargo and Bazel builds to Rust 1.98.1.
• Standardizes ARM artifact and checksum names on aarch64.

The following are alternative approaches to this PR:

1. Retain cross-based builds

• ➕ Keeps both Linux architectures in one runner job
• ➕ Avoids requiring GitHub-hosted ARM runners
• ➖ Depends on the external cross tool and its container environment
• ➖ Uses emulation or cross-compilation instead of validating native architecture builds
• ➖ Adds tool installation time and another source of build failures

2. Build all Linux artifacts with Bazel

• ➕ Unifies testing and release builds under one build system
• ➕ Centralizes toolchain and target configuration
• ➕ Could eliminate duplicated Cargo release jobs
• ➖ Depends on pending Linux cross-compilation support
• ➖ Introduces a larger migration than this CI reliability fix
• ➖ May not yet cover debug and ancillary artifact requirements

3. Pin Cargo with rust-toolchain.toml

• ➕ Automatically selects the same Cargo toolchain for local and CI builds
• ➕ Removes repeated rustup default commands from workflow jobs
• ➖ Still requires synchronization with the Bazel toolchain declaration
• ➖ Changes local developer toolchain behavior beyond this CI-focused scope
• ➖ Target installation and platform-specific setup remain necessary

Recommendation: Use the PR's native matrix approach now: it removes the cross dependency, validates each Linux architecture on matching hardware, and preserves existing release behavior. A Bazel-only pipeline is the strongest longer-term option once cross-compilation support covers all required release artifacts.

Build native Linux artifacts with a pinned Rust toolchain

• Pins Rust 1.98.1 across Windows, Linux, macOS, and SBOM jobs. Replaces cross-based Linux builds with native x86_64 and aarch64 matrices using musl-gcc, and renames ARM artifacts, checksum keys, and release paths to aarch64.

Upgrade and synchronize the Bazel Rust toolchain

• Upgrades the Bazel Rust toolchain from 1.89.0 to 1.98.1 and documents that it must remain synchronized with the CI workflow version.
