ADS arm64 setup installs on amd64 machine without blocking/warning but fails at runtime #24388

Azure Data Studio Version: latest RC1 build
OS Version: Windows

Steps to Reproduce:

Install ADS arm64 using MSI on amd64 machine
Run ADS

Expected: ADS setup blocks with an error message saying to use the correct installer for the chipset.

Actual: ADS MSI installs incorrect build for the machine. ADS fails at runtime.

OK, it looks like I installed the ARM build on my AMD64 machine. I'll change this to an enhancement request to block setup on the incorrect chipset with a better error message.
