Problem: Android APP fails to load ZMQ (ARM64 only) (#4442)
* Problem: Android APP fails to load ZMQ (ARM64 only)

Seen with physical Android devices running ARM64.
Not seen with ARM, X86 or X86_64.

Any Android APP loading ZMQ fails with:
```
[FATAL] Couldn't load library library zmq from jar. Dependency is required!
```

Unpack zyre-android-2.0.1.jar, find libzmq.so for ARM64 and look for missing
symbols:
```
prompt> unzip zyre-android-2.0.1.jar
prompt> cd lib/arm64-v8a
prompt> nm --undefined-only ./libzmq.so | head
                 U __aarch64_ldadd4_acq
                 U __aarch64_ldadd4_acq_rel
                 U __aarch64_ldadd4_rel
                 U __aarch64_ldadd4_relax
                 U __aarch64_ldadd8_acq_rel
                 U __aarch64_ldadd8_relax
                 U __aarch64_swp8_acq
                 U __aarch64_swp8_acq_rel
                 U __aarch64_swp8_rel
                 U __aarch64_swp8_relax
prompt>
```
Some more symbols are missing, but those are relevant for this issue.

OK.
These symbols are present in libc++_shared, but not exported ...:
```
prompt> nm libc++_shared.so | grep aarch64
00000000000ee6d0 t __aarch64_cas1_acq_rel
00000000000ee7a0 t __aarch64_cas8_acq_rel
00000000001028f0 b __aarch64_have_lse_atomics
00000000000ee840 t __aarch64_ldadd4_acq_rel
00000000000ee810 t __aarch64_ldadd4_rel
00000000000ee8a0 t __aarch64_ldadd8_acq_rel
00000000000ee870 t __aarch64_ldadd8_relax
00000000000ee7e0 t __aarch64_swp8_acq_rel
prompt>
```

Issue seen also on the WEB, with GCC & CLANG:
- https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1830472
- cea175b838

Solution: Add `-mno-outline-atomics` to CXXFLAGS (FLUTTER fix).

Additionaly, had to introduce NDK_NUMBER.
This variable is calculated in `android_build_helper.sh`.
It represents the numeric form of NDK_VERSION:
```
  NDK_VERSION          --> NDK_NUMBER
  android-ndk-r25      --> 2500
  android-ndk-r23c     --> 2303
  android-ndk-r22      --> 2200
  android-ndk-r21e     --> 2105
  ... and so on
```

This will help a few other things (NDK download ?).

Android Build

Prerequisites

You need the Android Native Development Kit (NDK) installed. See here to download it.

This project is tested against Android NDK version r25.

If you installed version r25 all you have to do is to expose the NDK root directory as environment variable, e.g:

export ANDROID_NDK_ROOT=$HOME/android-ndk-r25

If you installed another version you have to expose the NDK root directory as well as the NDK version, e.g:

export ANDROID_NDK_ROOT=$HOME/android-ndk-r17c
export NDK_VERSION=android-ndk-r17c

To specify the minimum sdk version set the environment variable below:

export MIN_SDK_VERSION=21   # Default value if unset

To specify the prefix directory set the environment variable below:

export ANDROID_BUILD_DIR=./builds/android/prefix/<android_arch> # Default value if unset

Build

In the android directory, run:

./build.sh [ arm | arm64 | x86 | x86_64 ]
