Drop the 32-bit libyabridge support for EnergyXT

I don't think anyone is using this, and it's triggering a bug in recent
Meson versions so just removing it for now should be fine.

+- Out of the box support for building a 32-bit version of yabridge for use in
+  64-bit machines has been dropped as part of solving a compatibility issue with
+  newer Meson versions
+  ([#431](https://github.com/robbert-vdh/yabridge/issues/431)). This was only

-### 32-bit libraries

-It also possible to build 32-bit versions of yabridge's libraries, which would
-let you use both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows VST2, VST3, and CLAP plugins from a
-32-bit Linux plugin host. This is mostly untested since 32-bit only Linux
-applications don't really exist anymore, but it should work! The build system
-will still assume you're compiling from a 64-bit system, so if you're compiling
-on an actual 32-bit system you would need to comment out the 64-bit
-`yabridge-host` and `yabridge-group` binaries in `meson.build`:

-```shell
-meson setup build --buildtype=release --cross-file=cross-wine.conf --unity=on --unity-size=1000 -Dbitbridge=true -Dbuild.cpp_args='-m32' -Dbuild.cpp_link_args='-m32'
-ninja -C build

-Like the above commands, you might need to tweak the unity size based on the
-amount of system memory available. See the CI build definitions for some
-examples on how to add static linking in the mix if you're going to run this
