Add support to release linux aarch64 wheels

[odidev]

Problem

On aarch64, ‘pip install faiss-gpu’ builds the wheels from source code and gives the below error-

ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1:

Resolution

On aarch64, ‘pip install faiss-gpu’ should download the wheels from PyPI

@kyamagu Please let me know your interest in releasing aarch64 wheels.

@odidev the current CI build environment cannot build GPU binaries due to the extremely long build time (easily timeout). Unfortunately I have no plan on adding external CI specifically for aarch64 gpu build
