Test machines for s390x?

Hi,

Now that ppc64 is gone, s390x is the only big-endian architecture
left. Bugs around endianness are not usually difficult to fix, _if_ I
can debug it and see where exactly the problem is. However, this
requires a tedious guess-a-patch, try a scratch build, check the
result, rinse and repeat.

Mock (with --forcearch) is completely useless for this. The programs
just crash during the build in such a way that I can't even use
`catchsegv`, and gdb is unusable in the container. And besides, the
programs don't actually crash on real s390x anyway..

Just like we have test machines for other less used architectures [1],
I am wondering if there is some way we can spin up a test machine for
s390x?
