Internal errors for `build-on: [all]`
Metadata
Current evaluation
Split into two bugs and closed; canonical/craft-application#692 tracks the remaining all-platform validation and remains open. Jira follow-up: CRAFT-4369.
Resolution: closed superseded
Reason: Maintainer mr-cal closed the report after splitting it into separate bugs, with canonical/craft-application#692 retaining the remaining validation work. No merged fix is identified, and #692 remains open.

Issue body
```yaml
name: testcraft
version: "0.1"
base: ubuntu@24.04
platforms:
all:
build-on: [all]
build-for: [all]
parts:
my-test:
plugin: nil
```
```bash
craft-application/testcraft> python3 ./__main__.py pack
testcraft internal error: ValueError("'all' is not a valid DebianArchitecture")
```
It's not surprising for a user to attempt to use `all` in `build-on`. Previously, Snapcraft would get to unmarshal the project and produce a user-friendly error like:
```
> snapcraft pack
Bad snapcraft.yaml content:
- 'all' cannot be used for 'build-on' (in field 'platforms')
```
