Build arm64 images

[hannesa2]

Now we could build artifacts for Apple silicon as well, because M1 runner are available now actions/runner-images#8439
But it makes no sense, because we have no sponsor for an Apple developer account. With this, an arm64 artifact for MacOS would make sense.
If you think, you could be the sponsor, please ping me.

Thank you for the hint, it worth to have a look.
Currently I do my experiments in my fork with an own custom arm64 runner https://github.com/hannesa2/dlt-viewer/pulls because I can't access setting in this fork

You label it with "help wanted" but the only one who can help here, are you !
I can't access "Settings" tab with runner settings, and only you can do this or provide access to me.

@hannesa2 issue can be closed?

[hannesa2]

The signing is missing. The idea is to do it analog to https://github.com/gitx/gitx/pull/334/files
But maybe we should open a new issue for this

This is solved be cause runner macos-14 is a free arm64 runner
