nasm: Fallback to native compiler when cross compiling

If nasm is not defined in cross file binaries we can fallback to build
machine nasm.

When cross compiling C code we need a different gcc binary for native
and cross targets, e.g. `gcc` and `x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc`. But when
cross compiling NASM code the compiler is the same, it is the source
code that has to be made for the target platform. We can thus use nasm
from build machine's PATH to cross compile for Windows on Linux for
example. The difference is the arguments Meson will pass when invoking
nasm e.g. `-fwin64`. That is already handled by NasmCompiler class.
