Ability to filter by architecture #39

During discussion in https://github.com/flathub/flathub/issues/250 it became apparent that the user might want to filter the store to only show their architecture (eg arm64).

Use case, I have an arm64 device and want to know which flatpak's will run on my device.

Currently the store shows only x86_64. It should be noted that i386 flatpak's can be installed on a x86_64 host - not sure how this should be indicated to the user? (Could show i386 flatpak's when filtered by x86_64).

With the rise of mobile linux devices such as PinePhone hans Librem5, being able to search by aarch64 is becoming very important. I've mostly resorted to searching via cli on my PinePhone but it would be much more convenient from the web where I can browse screenshots and details not immediately available in the flatpak cli.
