juju-core 1.15.0

Bug Description

The best available path to providing juju on aarch64 machines that do not support a 32bit compat environment is porting gccgo to run on aarch64. To support this, juju itself needs to be buildable via gccgo (currently the only tested compiler is the gc suite)

We may want gccgo in general on Ubuntu because it has a better story about shared libraries and distribution needs.

Marking this as done (Fix Released), within a first approximation juju-core 1.15.0 compiles with gccgo. The remaining issues are around LD_LIBRARY_PATH which would be fixed by distributing gccgo via PPA rather than hand compiling it.
