PowerPC (ppc64le) compatibility

Issue Type:	Improvement
Assignee:	Unassigned
Components:	ssh-agent-plugin
Created:	2016/Aug/16 1:17 AM
Environment:	PowerPC Jenkins 1.642 SSH Agent 1.9
Priority:	Major
Reporter:	Allan BURDAJEWICZ

Issue

Running Jenkins on PowerPC (ppc64le), when trying to use SSH-Agent we are getting below error:

```
[ssh-agent] Caused by: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: could not locate stub library in jar file. Tried [jni/unknown-Linux/libjffi-1.2.so, /jni/unknown-Linux/libjffi-1.2.so]
```

Resolution

It looks like version 2.0.3+ of jnr-iff is where ppc64le adds compatibility:

https://github.com/jnr/jnr-ffi/commit/6d8cdc0ce1a5d6dcfbec5c3b635bfe3232088273

So compatibility could be provided by upgrading the following dependencies:
