Description
With the additions we're making for multiplatform support, it would be nice if goss/dgoss could more intelligently select or download and use the correct goss binary based on an image's platform architecture. Right now we're confined to executing one platform at a time in environments with emulation.

Research direction
Start by locating the existing goss/dgoss execution and the multiplatform support mentioned in the issue. Trace how the image platform architecture is determined and how the current goss binary is selected; done means the matching goss or dgoss binary can be downloaded and used for each image architecture.
