Share a single JSON manifest per Vulkan driver between all architectures
Because our Vulkan driver libraries are installed to a directory in the
dynamic linker's search path, we can list them in their JSON manifest
by the library's basename rather than its absolute path. This makes the
content of the JSON manifest the same for each architecture, so it can
be a single file shared between architectures via dpkg's multiarch file
reference-counting.
This avoids multiarch file collisions between pairs of architectures
that have the same Meson CPU name but a different library directory,
such as armel and armhf.
The JSON manifests for Mesa's EGL driver and Vulkan layers, and for the
Nvidia proprietary driver's Vulkan driver, are already implemented
this way.
