The `docker.elastic.co/beats-dev/golang-crossbuild:1.24.0-darwin-arm64-debian10` container is used for the release
builds for the macOS Apple Silicon host. This container will only run on hosts of the linux/arm64 architecture.
The GitHub Actions runner machine previously used to perform the release builds is of the linux/amd64 architecture and
so is not compatible with the container. This caused the release builds to fail:
```
Status: Downloaded newer image for docker.elastic.co/beats-dev/golang-crossbuild:1.24.0-darwin-arm64-debian10
WARNING: The requested image's platform (linux/arm64/v8) does not match the detected host platform (linux/amd64/v3) and no specific platform was requested
exec /crossbuild: exec format error
task: Failed to run task "dist:macOS_ARM64": exit status 255
```
The failure is resolved by configuring the release workflows to use the `ubuntu-24.04-arm` runner machine that is
compatible with the container.
The standard practice is to use the "latest" GitHub Actions runner identifiers, which causes the workflow runs to always
use the newest stable runner version. However, GitHub has broken from this established convention by refusing to provide
"latest" identifiers for the Linux ARM runners. For this reason, the version-specific runner name was used in the
workflow. It will be necessary to manually update the runner name as new stable versions are made available (or more
likely after the removal of the runner in use breaks the workflows).
