Installer now runs on Arch Linux ARM #9

According to the README of this repo:

NOTE: Using Widevine requires glibc version 2.36 or later. Arch Linux ARM ships an ancient glibc version, and will not work at this time.

However, as of May 8th 2024, Arch Linux ARM has updated glibc to the latest version provided by the regular Arch Linux repository, that version being 2.39. Because of that, the installer works fine on any Arch Linux ARM install, besides the weird caveat of installing the firefox & chromium-based configs in the wrong folder (by default, the script tries to install to a lib64 folder when firefox & chromium's libraries are located in the regular lib folder).

For Arch Linux ARM you can use https://codeberg.org/mogwai/widevine - it's the previous https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/widevine but was deleted by the Arch admins because it was arm only.
