PPM and ARM images for Linux

I looked into it but gave up -- too many things that need changing, I presume:

ppm_has_binaries() returns TRUE ✅
ppm_platforms() gets a new column arch ✅
- the "arm64" values returned by PPM are translated to "aarch64" 🤙
ppm_binary_url() uses the new format "https://p3m.dev/cran/latest/bin/linux/noble-4.5/aarch64" instead of "https://p3m.dev/cran/latest/bin/linux/4.5-noble" 🤷‍♂️
anything else?

I have a Docker image that can be used in a devcontainer setup with R and all dependencies installed, multi-platform: https://github.com/cynkra/docker-images/pkgs/container/docker-images%2Fubuntu24-rig-rrel-dc-dt-pkgcache .

Automatic installation of binary packages on Linux ARM via pak works now for me.

Still need to fix

I think ppm_binary_url() is fine, the old URL works as long as you set the proper user agent header.
