Hi Nilesh,

When I packed libisal, only "customer" was liberasurecode. Liberasurecode
supports many backends and supports all archs. And because libisal is
highly optimized for ARM and amd64, I built it only for these archs. Other
platforms are supported, but not optimized. liberasurecode directly should
perform better.

Actually, a -med team package fastp has started to depend on libisal-dev


And because there is other "customer", I will try to build it for all
archs.

Thanks.
