Description

Now that firecracker ships ARM builds (https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker/releases), can we also get an ARM build of firectl added to the releases page?

In the meantime, I can confirm the `firectl` build works without errors on `ARM64`:

```
$ go version
go version go1.13.5 linux/arm64
$ go build
$ ./firectl
```

Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by tracing how current firectl binaries are built and published to the releases page, then confirm the existing Go build path supports linux/arm64. Done means an ARM64 firectl artifact is included in releases and can be downloaded and run successfully.
