This PR improves support for multiple arches in the following ways:

2) Bumps GHC from
9.6.6 -> 9.6.7as well as the cardano-automation flake input for aarch64-linux support;3) Updates the release-ghcr GHA workflow to produce linux multi-arch manifest OCI and corresponding release images which auto-resolve on container pull to the appropriate arch (amd64 or arm64);
4) Updates the release-upload GHA workflow to produce new linux and darwin aarch64 artifacts. Produces new OCI/goarch standard name aligned default OCI images.
