Build Mayastor Kubectl Plugin for different platforms and architectures

[sherif-fanous]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The Mayastor Kubectl plugin is only available as an x86_x64 binary thus cannot be installed on any Apple computer (Either Intel or Apple Silicon) which happen to be my daily driver

While I understand that building and testing ARM64 images for Mayastor itself would be a large endeavor I'm hoping that making the plugin available for other platforms/architectures (e.g. ARM64, Apple x86_x64 and Apple Silicon) would be just a matter of cross compiling the binary.

Describe the solution you'd like Build the Mayastor Kubectl Plugin for other platforms and architectures

Describe alternatives you've considered Install the plugin in a Docker container

We cross-compile to arm64 atm, but IIRC we had issues cross compiling from darwin x86_64 to darwin arm64. I'll see what the state of things is atm.. You can still run the x86_64 binary on arm64 darwin using rosetta though!

Alright, seems we now have aarch64 darwin runners! https://github.com/openebs/mayastor-extensions/pull/442 Could you please try this binary: https://github.com/openebs/mayastor-extensions/actions/runs/8289637439/artifacts/1328050608
