Support darwin-arm64

The distributions releases are built automatically by this GitHub action and I do see that darwin/arm64 is in fact missing. Looking around here and here it seems that this discussion is in place in Go as a whole (so not available yet).

If you however do have pointers on how this can be achieved manually I would be happy to look into it (I am not an expert on the matter myself, so I am reading around to see how to achieve it)!

We can support darwin-arm64 by using Goreleaser instead.
Sample:
https://github.com/seachicken/gh-poi/blob/8536479ffcee9b6ad040e33d8d943bf6f8f2bc9e/.github/workflows/release.yml#L24
https://github.com/seachicken/gh-poi/releases/tag/v0.3.1

Or we may have to wait for a new version to be released.

Thank you for pointing to the right direction! I would personally prefer to wait for a new version to be released: this is because then we would be dependent on an additional dependency, it being Goreleaser. What has been your experience with it? From the snippet you provided I take it is just a matter of changing the action file workflow?

[seachicken]

In order for Goreleaser to work, you need to add GitHub Actions and yml.

I've been using this for a few months now and it seems to work perfectly fine.
However, I would like to use what the official version provides as much as possible, so I will replace it when the cli/gh-extension-precompile is upgraded. Until then, it's not a bad alternative.

Again thank you for the complete set of instructions :).

Since I do not own a darwin-arm64 architecture I would need someone to help test on theirs that the produced release works. So for anyone passing by this issue with such system, feel free to open a PR.

Courtesy of @seachicken now v0.0.4 has support for darwin-arm64 too.

@docgonzo2015 would you try to see if it works for you too?

The latest GitHub CLI 2.8.0 release fixes this by falling back to amd64 binary if Rosetta is installed. If an arm64 binary is found, for example as a product of the latest gh-extension-precompile action, however, then its codesigning is fixed after downloading to allow execution by the OS.
