Decompose mk_CHROOT make target into before/gcc/after

Hi,

Please let me know what do you think about a feasibility of decomposing the
mk_CHROOT target
into "_before_gcc", "_gcc", and "_after_gcc" targets, so that they could be
executed separately, if desired.

I'm experimenting with jhalfs https://github.com/marcindulak/jhalfs-ci,
but getting limited by the github actions runners limit of 6 hours per job
https://docs.github.com/en/actions/learn-github-actions/usage-limits-billing-and-administration#usage-limits.

6 hours, even after properly (see
https://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/sympa/arc/alfs-discuss/2022-09/msg00008.html)
setting make to run two jobs in paralell may be insufficient to perform
chapter8
https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/systemd/chapter08/chapter08.html.
A github action runner has 2 cores
https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-github-hosted-runners/about-github-hosted-runners#supported-runners-and-hardware-resources.

Do you think a change like that would be feasible in jhalfs?
If yes, any recommendations how roughly an implementation would proceed,
which parts of the code would need to be modified?

I prefer to keep all tests run, but in case 824-gcc alone does not fit into 6
hours,
what would it take to implement a selective test-skip for it?
