Linux support

[stMerlHin]

Thanks a lot for bringing rive to flutter ecosystem.
Is Linux support planned ?

Hey @stMerlHin, we can explore adding first-class support after a few other priorities. There is a community version of rive-common (the package that will need Linux support to work) that shows instructions to build for Linux: https://github.com/meta-flutter/rive-common/

The patch and build procedure from this commit by @jwinarske actually works pretty well. I tested it on a bunch of rive files and interactions. The changes are also pretty minimal, which is encouraging.

I would love to see this integrated into the mainline (even as is, as a beta with no support). This would make it much easier to build and use.
