Support ARM64 builds and improve package naming in the GitHub Actions release workflow.

1. Added ARM64 Support

  • Added ubuntu-24.04-arm64 runner for native Linux ARM64 compilation
  • Utilized existing macos-14 runner which provides native macOS ARM64 (Apple Silicon) compilation
  • New Linux ARM64 release package will be named aarch64-ubuntu

2. Updated Package Naming

  • Renamed existing Ubuntu x86_64 package from ubuntu-20.04 to x86-ubuntu for clarity
  • Package names now clearly indicate the architecture

3. Matrix Configuration

The build matrix now includes:

  • amd64-ubuntu (ubuntu-20.04)
  • arm64-ubuntu (ubuntu-24.04-arm64)
  • arm64-macos-14 (macOS Apple Silicon)
  • amd64-windows-latest (Windows-lastest)

Release Artifacts

After these changes, each release will include:

  • wabt-{version}-amd64-ubuntu.tar.gz - Linux x86_64 build
  • wabt-{version}-arm64-ubuntu.tar.gz - Linux ARM64 build
  • wabt-{version}-arm64-macos-14.tar.gz - macOS ARM64 build (Apple Silicon)
  • wabt-{version}-amd64-windows-latest.tar.gz - Windows x86_64 build
  • wabt-{version}-wasi.tar.gz - WASI build

A few more nits regarding naming.

  • Can we use x64 rather than amd64 in our public filename
  • OS should be the first element in the filename
  • lets leave the arch out on windows we for now.

Can we just call this one windows for now? (At least until we support more than one windows arch).

name "windows-x64" looks more friendly for developer to integration.
I think it is acceptable ?

Is there some way we can test this change? Or do we need to wait for the next release to know if it actually works?

I have tested it on my fork repo and works well.

Hi, @sbc100
Should we support different ubuntu-version release?
Since different ubuntu have different glibc. Such as ubuntu-2204 don't have GLIBC_2.38 that may failed to executed.
wasm2wat: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version GLIBC_2.38 not found (required by wasm2wat)

No I think its fine to just support a single version, but we should build with the oldest version we can for max compatabiliy.

Folks to obscure/old linux distros and just rely on their distro package manager or build it themselves.

I did just notices that this PR changed ubuntu-20.04 to ubuntu-latest. I failed to notice that in review. Can you revert that part please? We should use ubuntu-20.04 to increase compat.
