Upgrade SDK deps so modern Linux distros work.

I can't use the simulator and thus connectiq on Fedora 30.  I assume all modern distros are affected because libwebkitgtk-1.0.so.0 is way too old to be included or even available on current generation distributions.

Please update your deps or better yet compile the simulator statically so it doesn't require ancient libraries.

    This work for me in Uubuntu 24.04 LTS

    Change the file sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu.sources
    Add the follow line:
    `Types: deb
    URIs: http://br.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/
    Suites: jammy noble-updates noble-backports
    Components: main restricted universe multiverse
    Signed-By: /usr/share/keyrings/ubuntu-archive-keyring.gpg

    Types: deb
    URIs: http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/
    Suites: jammy-security
    Components: main restricted universe multiverse
    Signed-By: /usr/share/keyrings/ubuntu-archive-keyring.gpg`

    then update the repositories with apt update and go to synaptic to search and install the correct version of libwebkit2gtk

    This never got fixed, but symlinking another version of the library did work for me: unix.stackexchange.com/.../753924

    Just use Docker, it's made for this.

    I figured it out (I think).

    It appears that Garmin uses Ubuntu LTS releases to develop their SDK/SDK manager on. The problem seems to be libjpeg.so.8 which is found in the libjpeg-turbo8 package. On a Debian sid installation it seems that this is the only dependency I cannot resolve without the OS package manager:

    $ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID:	Debian
Description:	Debian GNU/Linux bookworm/sid
Release:	unstable
Codename:	sid

$ for i in $(ldd $(file ~/.Garmin/ConnectIQ/Sdks/connectiq-sdk-lin-4.1.3-2022-05-10-b3aaee541/bin/* | grep ELF | awk '{print $1}' | sed -e 's/:$//') | grep 'not found' | awk '{print $1}')

do
echo $i
done
libjpeg.so.8
libjpeg.so.8

    https://github.com/waterkip/connectiq-sdk-docker/blob/master/Dockerfile

    If you have Ubuntu LTS running, you should, with the packages listed in the Dockerfile, get a working developer environment and should be good to go.

    On Debian Sid I'm facing issues with the SDK manager because it cannot find some shared objects, eventho everything seems to be installed.

    	libwebkitgtk-1.0.so.0 => not found
	libsoup-2.4.so.1 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsoup-2.4.so.1 (0x00007fc73ed6c000)
	libjavascriptcoregtk-1.0.so.0 => not found
	libjpeg.so.8 => not found

    Even when the webkit and javascriptcore packages are installed:

    ii  libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37:amd64 2.36.3-1     amd64        Web content engine library for GTK
ii  libwebkit2gtk-4.1-0:amd64  2.36.3-1     amd64        Web content engine library for GTK

ii  libjavascriptcoregtk-4.0-18:amd64 2.36.3-1     amd64        JavaScript engine library from WebKitGTK
ii  libjavascriptcoregtk-4.1-0:amd64  2.36.3-1     amd64        JavaScript engine library from WebKitGTK

    Compared to the Ubuntu docker image:

    ii  libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37:amd64 2.36.3-0ubuntu0.22.04.1 amd64        Web content engine library for GTK

ii  libjavascriptcoregtk-4.0-18:amd64 2.36.3-0ubuntu0.22.04.1 amd64        JavaScript engine library from WebKitGTK
