feat: add multi-platform Docker images (#3354)

* add arm platform to the build

* add a note about multi-platforms build

* test on current branch

* setup qemu on Github actions

* better naming

* Revert "test on current branch"

This reverts commit b0e5ea7.

+### A note about multi-platform builds
+
+Haystack images support multiple architectures, but depending on your operating system and Docker
+environment you might not be able to build all of them locally. If you get an error like:
+```
+multiple platforms feature is currently not supported for docker driver. Please switch to a different driver
+(eg. “docker buildx create --use”)
+```
+
+you might need to override the `platform` option and limit local builds to the same architecture as
+your computer's. For example, on an Apple M1 you can limit the builds to ARM only by invoking `bake` like this:
+```sh
+docker buildx bake base-cpu --set "*.platform=linux/arm64"
+```
