Add support for arm64 Linux and Windows GitHub hosted runners

[LorenzoRogai]

Github released arm64 hosted runners

https://github.blog/changelog/2024-06-03-actions-arm-based-linux-and-windows-runners-are-now-in-public-beta

The install process goes slow then fails with this error

/home/runner/work/_actions/shivammathur/setup-php/v2/src/scripts/../scripts/tools/add_tools.sh: line 31: /usr/bin/php: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

Those are not supported by the action currently.

I will try to add support in future, but no promises until it only supports large runners.

[LorenzoRogai]

Thank you for your response. They are configurable inside large runners section instead of a fixed default GitHub runs-on tag but already available to all customers on Team/Enterprise plans. Considering that these runners also cost 0.005€ instead of 0.008€ i think that many ppl will switch to them

@shivammathur are there any guide on how to implement a new runs-on platform? so i can help by submitting a PR

@LorenzoRogai
It would require adding support for arm builds here https://github.com/shivammathur/php-builder for linux. On Windows php does not support arm as of now as there are no arm builds, so I'm not sure, will have to test if existing x64 builds work on Windows.

arm64 images have come out of public beta and are now in general availability https://github.blog/changelog/2024-09-03-github-actions-arm64-linux-and-windows-runners-are-now-generally-available/

We get a little further on our arm64 build (adding for googleibility):

Run shivammathur/setup-php@v2
/usr/bin/bash /home/runner/work/_actions/shivammathur/setup-php/v2/src/scripts/run.sh
==> Setup PHP
✓ PHP Installed PHP 8.2.21

Following up here, as we'd like to move to support them as well

[LorenzoRogai]

At the end we just changed the workflow to use ppa:ondrej/php, if you have a simple PHP setup you can do this way. It worked fine anyway
