Description

### Description

32-bit x86 has dropped to a _very_ small number of active devices, and Studio is no longer shipping new emulator images for that ABI, so that ABI can't be tested very well any more. We should drop the ABI.

Research direction

Start by mapping where the 32-bit x86 ABI is configured, built, tested, and documented in the NDK, then check how Studio's emulator-image support affects that work. Done means the ABI is removed consistently without disrupting the remaining supported ABIs or their validation.
