add support for linux-arm64

[nipeone]

#1137 I have completed the compile.yaml action, but I am unable to test other relevant code for the time being.

Thanks for this. I've given it a quick review and it all looks good to me. I'll try to make time for a more thorough check this weekend.

Have you been able to test it on any arm64 hardware? I don't have anything I could test on.

[martindevans]

Oh CI failures are expected for now, since the binaries are missing (I'll add them at the next llama.cpp version update).

I haven't tested it yet, my arm64 device was borrowed by my bro.

Can you keep the new work on the reranker in a new PR please, that keeps this one easier to manage when I'm using it for the next binary version update. Just revert this one back to 5996b40 and open a PR for the reranker stuff when it's ready. Thanks :)

oops, i'll try to revert this one back to #5996b40

As a general tip for PRs: it's generally always better to work in a branch in your fork and PR that, instead of working in master and PRing that. That way it's easier to keep your PRs small and easy to manage :)

[nipeone]

Yes, your suggestion is very pertinent. I myself have found the inconvenience caused by the main branch submitting PR.

I've just opened #1179 which includes this work, so I'll close this PR now. Thanks for all the hard working getting Linux-ARM64 ready!
