Warn for `cfg!(target_* = "whatever")` usage in build scripts

[weiznich]

Code

if cfg!(target_feature = "sse2") {
    // …
}

Current output

No warning

Desired output

A warning pointing at `cfg!(target_feature = "sse2")` stating that this will be likely wrong for the target system if you cross compile

Rationale and extra context

I would expect a warning that explains that cfg!(target_*) will be evaluated in the context of the host system that compiles the build script and not in the context of the target system. It seems to be a common mistake for crate authors writing build scripts to use cfg! and not std::env in combination with the environment variables set by cargo. The warning should suggest that the later variant is the correct solution there.

This is indeed a foot-gun that users might encountered, and I agree that a lint seems appropriate.

However adding this kind of very targetted lint (Cargo specific knowledge) seems out of place for rustc, and given that are use-case for #[cfg(target_* = "...")] in build script, albeit very small, I think this proposed lint should probably live in Clippy.
