libgpgme-dev installs libgpgme-pthread.so in /usr/lib/${DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH}, literally

[Corentin Noël]

[Impact]
In Bionic, libgpgme-pthread.so it is installed in /usr/lib/${DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH} instead of /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu (the variable is not replaced)

[Test case]
Check that package installs to correct location

[Regression potential]
Packages looking for libgpgme-pthread find it now and might enable gpgme when they did not.

I checked the build logs for arm64, as they were done already, and it works:

old version -1ubuntu1:

lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2018-01-15 13:22 ./usr/lib/${DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH}/libgpgme-pthread.so -> libgpgme.so

with the -1ubuntu2 in proposed:

lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2018-08-14 14:53 ./usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libgpgme-pthread.so -> libgpgme.so
