Provide arm64 builds for shiny-server #532

Can you consider providing arm64 builds for shiny-server the same way the RStudio IDE is providing experimental builds for arm64? If they already have the workflow in place I guess it would be simple to borrow from them?

I wrote down some notes a while back, they can still be valid https://github.com/lvalnegri/workshops-setup_cloud_analytics_machine/blob/master/raspberry-pi_jetson-nano.md

@lvalnegri Thanks but I know how to compile shiny-server for arm, I even have blog posts about it, the idea behind this request is to make the installation process easier and less time-consuming. I thought since other RStudio development team already has a workflow for compiling for arm, they could implement it as well.

It's a good idea, thank you for the suggestion.

I'm curious if there's been any further discussion about, or planning for, pre-built ARM64 Shiny Server binaries. Apple silicon is popular (to say the least!) at this point and running via x86 emulation isn't the best. Specifically, pre-built ARM64 binaries would unblock this.

@mmuurr can you please explain / point me in the direction of the emulation you mentioned?
