About this:

prompt> chroot --userspec=uname:gname /path/to/chroot /bin/sh
chroot> do something
chroot> sudo do something else
[…]
chroot> exit

What part of that ↑ precisely do you not understand?

And about this:

prompt> cowbuilder --create --debootstrapopts --arch=foreignarchname
prompt> cowbuilder --build somepackage.dsc

Where somepackage’s Build-Depends are expected to work as normal,
including when they’re suid/sgid.
