Quentin Gliech 9b86458900 Speed up the building of Docker images using ARM CI workers (#18620)
This splits the building of docker images in 2 jobs, one for each
platform, using the native ARM runners for arm64.

The tricky part here is to get back a nice multi-arch manifest.
Previously, you'd do that by pushing each platform image in two distinct
tags, then referencing them in a multi-arch manifest. Nowadays, it's
possible to push images by their digest only, then creating the manifest
for those pushed digests separately

This is inspired by the Docker docs on how to distribute multi-platform
image builds:
https://docs.docker.com/build/ci/github-actions/multi-platform/#distribute-build-across-multiple-runners

`ghcr.io/element-hq/synapse:sha-c733dd6` is an example image that got
built by this workflow (there is a temporary sha-* tag on
workflow_dispatch runs to help trying out the workflow)

I also had to make sure we sign the manifests correctly:


```
$ cosign verify --certificate-oidc-issuer https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com --certificate-identity-regexp 'https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/.github/workflows/docker.yml@.*' ghcr.io/element-hq/synapse:sha-c733dd6

Verification for ghcr.io/element-hq/synapse:sha-c733dd6 --
The following checks were performed on each of these signatures:
  - The cosign claims were validated
  - Existence of the claims in the transparency log was verified offline
  - The code-signing certificate was verified using trusted certificate authority certificates
```

And the numbers aaaaare 🥁
