Added note that multilib GCC is required when building the native version on 64 bit Linux (#66)

Browse Source 
Without a GCC installation that can build both 32 and 64 bit executables, the native build will fail on 64 bit Linux machines with an error about unsigned __int128 being undefined. GCC does not support __int128 on 32 bit targets, and GCC was using it via a standard library implementation header intended for 64 bit machines.

Instances of "arm" were replaced with "ARM" where the acronym was intended.

If you are building the native version on a 64 bit Linux computer, use a GCC installation which has multilib support enabled (it can compile both 32 and 64 bit programs). The package providing that support on most Linux distributions is called `gcc-multilib`.

The native version of ntcore will run tests on build. The arm version will not, as the current platform likely does not allow running of an ARM binary.
