Configure Gradle task dependencies to be architecture-specific #112

Description

I'm building a library which I'd like to make available on every possible platform: arm, arm64, x86, x86_64. However, during development I usually care about a single one. But gradle compiles everything, which takes some extra time.

One option is to manually disable the archs which I don't care about. I can do that by commenting out the undesired archs. Like so:

    targets = [
    //        "arm",
            "arm64",
    //        "x86",
    //        "x86_64"
    ]

But that's inconvenient because (1) the gradle file is checked into the version control system and (2) I need to remember to change this if I change de development device (e.g. I transition from a physical device to an emulator).

I'm wondering if there's a recommended way during development to tell gradle to only compile the right arch for the device we are targeting when we launch the app using the "run" button. I think Android Studio handles this gracefully for regular JNI/C++ code using CMake in Android Studio.
