Add lib64 path as default path for plugins #83

On fedora and on some others distro, ladspa, dssi and lv2 plugins are located in:

/usr/lib64/dssi
/usr/lib64/ladspa
/usr/lib64/lv2

Add these paths as default path in the preferences.

Carla uses <...> _ PATH as default, like LADSPA_PATH, LV2_PATH etc. If your distro sets up these, Carla will pick it up.

The issue here is that Debian&Ubuntu might have /usr/lib64, but it will be a symlink to /usr/lib, which results in duplicated plugins.

Looks like this is still unresolved. Either way, I might make a default config for Fedora Jam to set those paths, as I believe Fedora doesn't set those paths by default. In fact, I don't believe Ubuntu does either.

(Copy from https://github.com/falkTX/Carla/issues/1431#issuecomment-965718995.)

I see that Carla has /usr/lib64 listed in Settings -> Configure Carla -> Plugin Paths in my Fedora 35 install.

This is also the case after removing existing configs from ~/.config/falkTX and letting new ones be created from defaults.

Can it be confirmed that this issue is still present for somebody?
