Provide 64 bit image of Raspberry Pi OS

[highlandery]

Feature Description

Provide 64 bit version of Raspberry Pi image using Raspbian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye).

Rationale

• Stable version of 64 bit Raspberry Pi OS Lite (Debian Bullseye) now mature (https://www.raspberrypi.com/news/raspberry-pi-os-64-bit/).
• Performance benefits on the 4 and 8 GB versions of Raspberry Pi.
• Compatibility with packages going forward.
• Unifi Network Controller no longer supports 32 bit OS (v7.5 and newer, MongoDB 3.6+ and java 11 dependencies https://github.com/jacobalberty/unifi-docker).
• Current release prevents use of 64 bit docker images.

Hardware Support

• Raspberry Pi 4B
• Raspberry Pi 400
• Raspberry Pi 3B
• Raspberry Pi 3B+
• Raspberry Pi 3A+
• Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W
• Raspberry Pi CM3
• Raspberry Pi CM3+
