Add Linux ARM Prebuilds to CI

[jcmalek]

Describe the bug
I think that the v6.0.0-beta.7 release: v6.0.0-beta.7 may have lost support for a generic linux ARM build and/or no longer has 32-bit ARM support and the latest builds are now specific to MacOS/darwin. (Maybe happened during move from Travis to GitHub actions)

Reproducing
In previous versions there existed prebuilt code for /prebuilds/linux-arm and /prebuilds/linux-arm64, now I am only seeing /prebuilds/darwin-arm64 which may be unusable on more generic linux based 32-bit ARM systems.

Expected behavior
Please restore support for generic linux-arm and linux-arm64. This may just be a build naming issue if you aren't actually using anything specific to MacOS/darwin.

Tested on

• Linux distro: ARM i.MX 7 Yocto Poky 4.0.12 (kirkstone) (Open-Embedded Linux)
• ZeroMQ.js version: 6.0.0-beta.19

The prebuilds might have been not uploaded by the CI. We can release with those

I don't think the arm 32 and 64 prebuilds are even built anymore in the CI recipe but I haven't looked closely.

PRs for adding that to CI are welcome!

Maybe if I have a chance in the New Year. Thanks Amin!

Could this be the cause why I'm getting this error while installing zeromq inside a Docker container?

No native build was found for platform=linux arch=arm64 runtime=node abi=108 uv=1 armv=8 libc=glibc node=18.17.0

The container's image is declared as:

FROM node:18.17.0

This may be the same error as me: #594

[enzoferey]

Downgrading to zeromq@^5.3.1 fixed the issue for me, so I can confirm the corresponding prebuild was there at some point before.

[jcmalek]

Yes, that is the same error we get. It looks like they stopped building the generic linux ARM builds when they switched CI systems. I think it is just a matter of updating their CI "recipe" but I haven't had time to look at it myself.

We can add ARM builds to CI, but we will need to use Qemu for ARM emulation. Travis used to support ARM, but GitHub Actions doesn't natively.

We can probably use something like this to make it easier:

anyone working on this?
