Support ARM platform

[LivefromRaleighwood]

crutkas: taking over the body here for creating the work items

Can do now work:

• Upgrade everything to .NET Core/Standard away from .NET Fx. <- Upgrade any .NET Framework area to .NET Core 3 #776
• Eliminate all dependencies that are .NET Fx only. <- Remove all .NET Fx dependencies #8557
• Upgrade everything to .NET 5 <- Upgrade .NET Core 3.1 to .NET 5 #8650
• Runner: the exception handler is relying on x64-specific registers
• Update installer to verify proper processor type for installer
  • don't do ARM installer for x64 user
  • don't do x64 installer for ARM user

Pure ARM64 solution

• WPF ARM64 support <- How about supporting ARM64. dotnet/wpf#1817
• WinForms ARM64 support
• Installer updates
• Get CI to ARM64 solution
• Get Build farm to ARM64

Hybrid solution work (ARM64 where possible, everything else is x86)

• Get solution to work E2E on x86
• Update installer to verify proper processor type for installer
  • warn do x86 installer for x64 user
• Get solution to work in hybrid ARM64/x86

Should update the readme with this until we have time to address it.

Readme calls this out

Thank you. Lack of ARM64 support seemed like an oversight considering the Surface X product announcement.

We have an internal build that can do this. We are aware of the device and the need to get a build out with ARM support. Just takes time and prioritization for what gets worked on. Great example of a thing people can vote on to get us to up the priority.

#413 is a prerequisite for this issue.
