Pass -latomic for architectures that need it

Some architectures, specifically armel, mipsel, m68k & powerpc in
Debian, need to explicitly link to atomic.

Use meson to see if the target's CPU family is one of those, and if so,
pass -latomic to the linker.

Tested on armel and mipsel machines to verify passing -latomic works, and
on armhf and amd64 to ensure normal builds aren't broken.

Fixes #371.
