AArch64 has another common name for the architecture: `arm64`. And while 
compilers and RPM use `aarch64`, the kernel and a number of language ecosystems 
use `arm64`.

In addition, Debian packages use the `arm64` architecture name to refer to 
`aarch64`, and AArch64 packages that are translated from DEB to RPM format tend 
to not be installable because there's not a sufficient architecture mapping.

This change adds the `arm64` identifier as an alias for `aarch64` so that this 
works as expected, rather than breaking on unknown architectures.
