Description
When building the Foundry precompiles with:
cargo +nightly build --release
the process is currently constrained to x86-64 architectures. This limitation arises due to the dependency on deoxysii-rust, which relies on SSSE3 instructions.
This constraint should be clearly documented to inform developers about the architecture requirement.
Additional Notes:
- Investigate and document potential approaches to support other architectures, such as Apple Silicon.

Research direction
Start with the documentation entry covering Foundry precompiles and the cargo +nightly build --release command. Verify the x86-64 and SSSE3 constraint from the deoxysii-rust dependency, then document the limitation and any noted approaches for Apple Silicon or other architectures.
