Deeplearning4j: libnd4j/nd4j/dl4j Jetson builds

As discussed with @agibsonccc: Let's set up build pipeline for Jetson devices family. Basically ARM-targeted cross-compilation + 1 cc per device.

Jetson build pipeline has been added to CI, artifacts (snapshots) can be found at maven central.

BTW, Travis CI now supports ARM64 and the hardware apparently comes from here:

Not sure if useful here, but Huawei Cloud also has ARM servers.

If I remember, from getting nd4j working with cuda on the jetson nano, it only supported Cuda 10.0 ... Also, there was no support for Intel MKL... I'm not sure if nVidia has updated support for the nano to cuda 10.1 yet... (jetson was cuda CC 5.3 ) ... my jetson nano has been collecting dust for the past few months... maybe it's time to dig it out again.. (I need to build against 1.0.0.-beta5 anyway for myrobotlab)

Yeah, CUDA on ARM is a mess, but they are supposed to fix this soon: https://nvidianews.nvidia.com/news/nvidia-brings-cuda-to-arm-enabling-new-path-to-exascale-supercomputing
Maybe we should wait for that to happen...

yeah, last i checked, latest version of jetpack for the jetson nano was 4.2 something and that included only cuda 10.0 ... so yeah, i agree, we should wait for a new release of cuda that hopefully is consistent across all platforms ( arm and x86 ) .. at that point it'll be easier to maintain.
