Deployment issues

• Windows (MinGW), it is necessary to rename the dotherside library using the prefix ".lib" over ".a" because the zig prefers to follow the standard msvc prefix.
• Linux a trouble happens under qt.qpa.plugin.
• MacOS it will be verified the break of the linkage. see dotherside issue #43

At the moment the Zig compiler demonstrates incompatibility on the i686 architecture resulting in a error during library linking.
Update: The environment is x86_64 and zig has compiled the x86_64 (target: native-windows-gnu 👈 ) examples and the x86 library. 😕

MSYS i686 (x86)
