arm64 support?

What is the feature or enhancement?
Hi there!
I'd love to host this in my personal server, but apparently it only works on x86?
I can see it's because of the tensorflow requirement, I am taking a shot at making it work myself, but if anyone else already has done it that would be nice :-)
So, using this libtensorflow compiled for arm: https://github.com/kesuskim/libtensorflow-2.4.1-linux-arm64/blob/master/libtensorflow.tar.gz (yes, I know, older version) and doing the obvious changes in the libtensorflow install scripts it seems to work:
I'm a bit hesitant to add that version of libtensorflow since it's outdated and just a tarball in someone's repo 😅
Unfortunately it looks like there isn't going to be any official support from tensorflow: tensorflow/tensorflow#17850 (comment)
Also full disclosure I know barely anything about tensorflow, just did enough research to create: https://github.com/robherley/guesslang-go
If someone wants to make a custom docker image that will compile the tensorflow lib (or are there any base images already?) I'm also open to that.
Otherwise, we can maybe look into a distribution of snips without guesslang/tensorflow at all. e.g. adding some go:build tags to omit dependencies
Oh sure, that tarball is super suspect, I was not proposing to use it, just checking that there is no specific thing about arm64 that doesn't work :-D
Thanks to @tigh-latte, you can now pull an arm64 version of snips 🎉
The image is now multiarch:
The caveat is that guessing the language with tensorflow is disabled (hoping to fix that soon with tensorflowlite), but besides that should totally be useable now!
I'll cut a v0.2.0 release soon!
