The build script for Chocolatey now handles two binaries, the one for AMD64 and the one for ARM64, each one with its own SHA. Both SHAs are injected in the `chocolateyInstall.ps1.tmpl` template file which is then used as the installation script. At installation time, this script checks if its running on an ARM64 machine or an AMD64 machine and then downloads the appropriate CLI Windows binary.

What this PR does / why we need it
This PR updates the Chocolatey package to be able to install a Windows ARM64 CLI build when running on an ARM64 Windows.
To do this, the build script now handles two binaries, the one for AMD64 and the one for ARM64, each one with its own SHA. Both SHAs are injected in the
chocolateyInstall.ps1.tmpltemplate file which is then used as the installation script. At installation time, this script checks if its running on an ARM64 machine or an AMD64 machine and then downloads the appropriate CLI Windows binary.Which issue(s) this PR fixes
Part of #357
Describe testing done for PR
This is hard to test directly because there is no Windows ARM64 version currently published on this repo's Github release page. So what I did was pretend that the
v1.0.0AMD64 was the ARM64 version, and that thev1.1.0AMD64 version was the AMD64 version. I built the new Chocolatey package with those "hacks" and then ran it on:v1.1.0)v1.0.0)v1.1.0)I also tested building the new Chocolatey package using VMware's internal build system and confirmed the proper installation script was generated using the expected SHAs for AMD64 and ARM64.
Release note
Additional information
Special notes for your reviewer
The script assumes that the Github binary for Windows ARM64 is named
tanzu-cli-windows-arm64-windows11.zip.This may need a bit of discussion.
