Fails to build from source on arm64

[Łukasz Zemczak]

During work on our big arm64 xenial touch initiative, now that libhybris is available on arm64, we noticed that oxide-qt FTBFS on this architecture. Example log can be found here:

https://launchpad.net/~ci-train-ppa-service/+archive/ubuntu/stable-phone-overlay/+build/9694223

We need all touch projects buildable on arm64.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Work on this won't happen until bug 1326697 is complete - there's literally no point in spending time getting the gyp build working, when it will all end up being deleted a week or so later and then having to redo all of the work again for the gn build
