I added it to be able to rebuild easily the blobs consumed
by our tests:

    tests/docker: Install tools to cross-debug and build Linux kernels

    We often run Linux kernels to test QEMU. We sometimes need
    to build them manually to use non-default features. We only
    miss the tiny 'bc' tool.

    The ncurses library is helpful to run 'make menuconfig'.

    Finally, gdb-multiarch allow us to debug a TCG guest when its
    architecture is different than the host.

I think this is related to the question of what we can include
to the repository for testing... If we can not add binary and
don't have how to produce them, it becomes complicated.
