v1.8.0

[marcus-crane]

This release adds support for Linux machines running arm64 such as newer Raspberry Pi devices apparently.

It has been tested using an Ubuntu arm64 VM running on a macOS Silicon device via Parallels but any feedback from users with real Linux arm64 devices would be appreciated.

Some general improvements for the Linux .deb packages has been done too, mainly defining required dependencies that can cause October to not boot within certain distros, such as pop_OS! due to dev libraries not being installed out of the box.

Behind the scenes, a bunch of work has been done to slim down the release pipeline and generate build artifacts against pull requests, which should greatly speed up the feedback loop for development.
