feat(build artifacts): please provide pre-build binaries for different CPU architectures

[davidjeddy]

As KICS is a Golang based application please provide pre-build binaries for x86,arm64, ppcie CPU architectures.

Describe the solution you'd like For each KICS release a list of prebuild, staticly linked, binaries

Describe alternatives you've considered

• Building ourselves (current solution)
• not using kics (our CI runs in AWS Fargate, we can not do container-in-container pattern)

Many other projects provide built binaries (OpenTofu for example https://github.com/opentofu/opentofu/releases/tag/v1.10.5). We would really like to see the same from KICS.

Hi @davidjeddy, Thanks for raising the issue!

I'll take this request to the team and discuss the possibility of providing pre-built binaries for the mentioned architectures. Once we’ve reviewed it, I’ll update this thread with our decision and next steps.

Thanks again for the suggestion and help improving KICS!
