rules_perl Support for Windows arm64

I am working on Windows (x86 and arm64) support for openssl and bzlmod in: https://github.com/raccoons-build/bazel-openssl-cc/pull/5. I am wondering if there are plans for a toolchain for Windows arm64.

Oh I noticed that even the x86_64 Windows toolchain isn't ready yet...

Frustratingly, yes: https://github.com/bazel-contrib/rules_perl/issues/30

There hasn't been any engagement from maintainers on this so it's not clear if it's even worth taking the time to open a pull-request 😞

Ah I see. Well I guess we can close this since that one exists already! Thank you!

The other one was closed with no explanation. I would keep this one open.

I'm not sure why the other issue was closed. Unfortunately, there is no roadmap for the Perl Rules. If you have code that adds the functionality you require without changing any of the current functionality, please submit it.

Windows support is included in https://github.com/bazel-contrib/rules_perl/pull/84 but it doesn't add a arm64 toolchain. If that PR merges then that will be the only remaining task to complete this.
