Dockerfile doesn't support other platforms (e.g., arm64/m1)

In working around #74, I try to build the docker image (docker build . -t xeus-clang-repl) but fail to because of a linker error during building CppInterOp:

282.9 -- Build files have been written to: /home/jovyan/CppInterOp/build

Not sure if it's because gold isn't smart enough or something else (i.e., I didn't try patching to use ld instead).

Not sure if this will help. The Dockerfile tags ubuntu-22.04, which is for linux/amd64 (x86_64)( see https://hub.docker.com/r/jupyter/base-notebook/tags for the Docker base image page). If it was switched to latest then maybe you might have better luck, since this has arm64.

In regards to your comment about using ld instead. It was needed when I installed xeus-clang-repl natively within MacOS on Apple Silicon. Assuming this project is interested in natively supporting arm64 I can create an issue on what changes were needed to install it natively, and eventually create pull requests (for both xeus-clang-repl and its dependencies).

@mcbarton, that would be great - we are interested in this!

As I now need to look at the Dockerfile as part of my PR #77 I plan to solve this issue as part of the PR
