[Android] [Patch] Support system application to read VLC Jni Library

[Samuel Huang]

Hi, VLC Developers,

Because system application can't generate "/data/app-lib/[PACKAGE_NAME]/"
automatically, this cause application can't find "libvlcjni.so" and crash.
We need to put library in "/system/lib/". Checking this path, when it can't
find library under /data/app-lib.
