Use libatomic for 64-bit operations

The rts package uses GCC's __atomic built-in functions on 64-bit values. This
is not supported on some 32bit platforms (e.g., mipsel) resulting in the
following compilation error:
   rts/dist/build/libHSrts_thr-ghc8.10.7.so: error: undefined reference to '__atomic_load_8'
   rts/dist/build/libHSrts_thr-ghc8.10.7.so: error: undefined reference to '__atomic_store_8'
   rts/dist/build/libHSrts_thr-ghc8.10.7.so: error: undefined reference to '__atomic_fetch_add_8'

 Fix this by linking against libatomic.
