Include the libjnidispatch.so shared library for all the Android ABIs that your project supports.

• Navigate to JNA libraries.

  | ------------------- | ------------- |
  | android-aarch64.jar | arm64-v8a     |
  | android-armv7.jar   | armeabi-v7a   |
  | android-x86-64.jar  | x86_64        |
  | android-x86.jar     | x86           |
  

• Put the libjnidispatch.so into the mapped Android ABI folder, for example, arm64-v8a, armeabi-v7a, x86 and x86_64.
