Expose aarch64 zoneinfo wheels to pypi

[tbbharaj]

It looks like the aarch64 wheels for backports.zoneinfo are getting build by github workflow but not getting published to pypi.org.
It will be beneficial to expose the wheels to pypi.org instead of building the wheels from source.

On redhat and AL2 arm64 plaform, building backports.zoneinfo from source gives following error:

    lib/zoneinfo_module.c:1:10: fatal error: Python.h: No such file or directory
     #include "Python.h"
              ^~~~~~~~~~
    compilation terminated.
    error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1
    
    ----------------------------------------
Command "/bin/python3 -u -c "import setuptools, tokenize;__file__='/tmp/pip-build-rurq02t6/backports.zoneinfo/setup.py';f=getattr(tokenize, 'open', open)(__file__);code=f.read().replace('\r\n', '\n');f.close();exec(compile(code, __file__, 'exec'))" install --record /tmp/pip-xovxez1_-record/install-record.txt --single-version-externally-managed --compile" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build-rurq02t6/backports.zoneinfo/

This needs to manually resolved by installing python3-devel. This is affecting other packages dependent on zoneinfo e.g. clickhouse-driver, therefore releasing aarch64 wheels to pypi will be helpful!

Can we expose aarch64 wheels given it's already in github's workflow

Ping.
Could we have the arm64 wheels for backports.zoneinfo uploaded to pypi?
From the messages above, I see that the arm64 wheel is being built.
The wheel is still missing in pypi: https://pypi.org/project/backports.zoneinfo/0.2.1/#files

Thank you,
Sebastian

@pganssle , when might a new release be cut with x86 and aarch64 wheels on pypi?
