ARM and ARM64 AppImages link to libz.so instead of libz.so.1

This seems to be a problem with the AppImage loader. The ARM and ARM64 variants link to libz.so instead of libz.so.1, so e.g. on Ubuntu you need to install zlib1g-dev in order to run any AppImage.

The i686 and AMD64 variants correctly link to libz.so.1 and don't depend on a zlib dev package.

You can verify/reproduce this with the appimagetool packages.

Interesting bug you found there, thanks for testing. Shouldn't be overly hard to fix.

@TheAssassin This could be a hint to this problem: CollaboraOnline/richdocumentscode#68 (comment)

I have to build the arm64 AppImage on x64 CI as ARM64 CI is not available. Is there a solution for this?
