Build for `Linux alpine`

https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/40113#issuecomment-323193341

You can not set compile crate-type to cdylib when compile target is *-unknown-linux-musl by default.

If you want to do so, you need pass -C target-feature=-crt-static to rustc.

There are two ways to pass this argument:

Set it in .cargo/config.toml:

[target.x86_64-unknown-linux-musl]
rustflags = ["-C", "target-feature=-crt-static"]

There is codegen error when compile target is i686-windows-*: Rust issue 67497.

There is a workaround to avoid this issue:

Set lto to false, if you haven’t set lto in your Cargo.toml, the value is false by default, you can ignore this one.
Set codegen-units to 32 (or bigger). The default value of codegen-units is 16 by default when compile target is release, you can set CARGO_PROFILE_RELEASE_CODEGEN_UNITS=32 and CARGO_PROFILE_RELEASE_LTO='false' to make the compiler happy when targeting i686-windows-*. Here is an example.
