M1 Support about eth-security-toolbox

@elopez can you check this? 🙂

Sure, there are two main blockers to this that I can think at the moment:

• solc binaries are not available for arm, so either we would not offer solc and rely on frameworks using eg. the js compiler, or we would need some qemu integration in solc-select 🤔
• there's no arm64 support on GitHub actions, so we would have to build the image using qemu (slow), manually, or in another CI solution. I think this image is built and published manually, so not that big of a change here.

Hi Guys, is there an update for the linux/arm64 docker please?
I still get:
WARNING: The requested image's platform (linux/amd64) does not match the detected host platform (linux/arm64/v8) and no specific platform was requested
exec /bin/bash: exec format error

Many thanks in advanced.

No updates to share so far as far as eth-security-toolbox goes, but there's been a few recent developments that you might find useful:

• if you're on mac, echidna, slither, crytic-compile and solc-select can be installed from brew and run natively, for both M1 and intel: brew install echidna
• the slither docker container does have linux/arm64 builds, so if you're interested in running slither that might be an option: https://github.com/crytic/slither/pkgs/container/slither
• likewise, the etheno container also has arm builds: https://github.com/crytic/etheno/pkgs/container/etheno%2Fetheno

I'm happy to share that we now have aarch64 builds of this image 😄 there's a few pieces still that are x86 only (like echidna and solc compilers) but they should still mostly work on M1 Macs thanks to emulation. The rest of the tools (Slither, Medusa, Node, Vyper, Foundry, etc) should work at native speeds.
