In preparing for the new 64 bit support requirment incoming for August 1st https://developer.android.com/distribute/best-practices/develop/64-bit

I have come across this issue as well. Is there a recommended workaround? Right now our best option seems to be to generate both versions separately, merge them and sign the resulting APK. Hi, my team has also found this issue. Is there any plan to address this soon/before the August 1st cut off? Bumping this up due to the hard requirement on apps depending on multi-arch splits over 32 and 64 bit native libs. WIP fix: https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/pull/8510

Using https://github.com/jin/repro/tree/master/8283 as repro:

```

``` The fix will be in 0.27. Thanks @jin!
`--fat_apk_cpu` doesn't pack multi-arch libraries from aar_import targets
If an aar contains .so files for multiple architectures (e.g. foo and bar), and an android_binary depends on this aar, `--fat_apk_cpu=foo,bar` doesn't pack both so files into the final APK correctly. 

The current behavior only packs the .so for one target configuration into the APK.
