OTP-27.0.1 otp-aarch64-linux-gnu.tar.gz on ubuntu-22.04 errors

I tried the following and received two different errors:

$ docker run --rm -it ubuntu:22.04
root@758c77cbefad:/# apt update && apt install -y curl
root@758c77cbefad:/# curl --fail -LO https://github.com/cocoa-xu/otp-build/releases/download/v27.0.1/otp-aarch64-linux-gnu.tar.gz
root@758c77cbefad:/# mkdir otp-27.0.1 && tar -xzf otp-aarch64-linux-gnu.tar.gz -C otp-27.0.1

I was able to solve the first error by doing: cd otp-27.0.1/usr/local/lib/erlang && ./Install -sasl $PWD, fwiw. I guess this is expected but I thought I'd mention this.

In my builds I was doing ./Install before archiving since the installation is relocatable as of OTP 25.

Thanks @wojtekmach! btw I'm not sure if it would be a good idea to do a little hack to the launch scripts (in this repo of course) to bring the relocatable feature to OTP 24, or just do an AS-IS build and make a note in README.md? (I mean of course it's not necessary to use the code in this repo for your proposal, but just as a general question regarding whether the precompiled OTP 24 should have this feature)

[wojtekmach]

@cocoa-xu agreed, I think it's safe to run ./Install on OTP 25+ but otherwise keep things as is and document accordingly. FYI I'll be submitting an OTP patch to have a .zip Windows build in releases which is archived relocatable install. :) (See erlang/otp#8729 (comment))

This has been on my todo list for so long and I finally stop procrastinating and added it in a8b903f 😂
