aarch64-linux-android-ar not installed

[mendess]

I'm trying to compile a rust program but it fails to build one of the dependencies with the error: error occurred: Failed to find tool. Is 'aarch64-linux-android-ar' installed?

I've been searching for a while but I can't find a package that gives me this binary, does anyone know?

Try installing the binutils package, or use AR=llvm-ar <your cargo build command>

To fix copy and rename llvm-ar to aarch64-linux-android-ar in ${ANDROID_NDK_HOME}/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/{SYSTEM}/bin

Do this for all your target arch.

We should probably patch the rust package to use llvm-ar instead, as I did with the Swift package. I don't use rust, so will have to be someone who uses it.
