control: affects -1 apt
control: document that apt (and rust packages) require SSE2 on i386
thanks

Hi,

looping in the apt maintainers, please read the full report, in short:
since the latest binNMU sqv now fails to run on i386 because due to
#1095862 in rustc the baseline was raised to require SSE2, so causing
apt to fail to verify because sqv fails to run...
