[cmd/builder] Disable CGO by default
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When using a binary output by the builder with no options, I can't use it by default in a scratch image unless it is compiled with CGO_ENALBED=0.
Describe the solution you'd like
Turn off CGO by default in the builder. Allow users to enable it through setting the CGO_ENABLED environment variable.
Additional context
Our contributing guidelines forbid using CGO, and no upstream components I'm aware of use it. We also have CGO_ENABLED=0 set anywhere we build Collector binaries in upstream repositories.
Users have also run into this before: https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/issues/6373
