wrong architecture of stage-snaps when cross building
Metadata
Current evaluation
stage-snaps fetches wrong architecture during cross-compilation via --target-arch or YAML architectures definition. Open with zero comments and inactive for over five years. Needs triage and assignment to resolve the build configuration bug.
Suggested action: close stale
Reason: The issue is over 5 years old with zero maintainer interaction or follow-up. It references snapcraft 4.6, which is severely outdated, and cross-architecture build logic has likely been significantly reworked in major subsequent releases, rendering the original report irrelevant to the current codebase.

Issue body
when using stage-snaps and building snap for different than native arch, wrong stage snap is downloaded.
There are two use cases this should be considered under:
- cross building with: --target-arch=<>
- cross building through architecture definition e.g.
architectures:
- build-on: amd64
run-on: arm64
Tested with snapcraft 4.6 rev 6281
