docs: use arm64 on x86_64 arch ( thanks to api level 35)

[Moumouls]

This is just an issue to track and a note that may help other users.

If your app is only compatible with the ARM architecture, you can still run it on GitHub Actions using ubuntu-latest (x86_64) with API level 35.

API level 35 appears to support ABI translation for both ARM and x86, allowing ARM-only apps to run on an x86_64 emulator.

Here is a working example:

- name: Run Android Emulator with ARM translation
  uses: reactivecircus/android-emulator-runner@v2
  with:
    api-level: 35
    target: google_apis
    arch: x86_64
    profile: pixel_5
    force-avd-creation: false
    emulator-options: -no-snapshot-load -no-snapshot-save -no-window -gpu swiftshader_indirect -noaudio -no-boot-anim -camera-back none -camera-front none
    disable-animations: true
    script: bash scripts/run-automation.sh

I hope this helps!

I think this could be added to the README, since it’s currently the only way to run ARM apps on GitHub Actions because:

• Linux ARM runners don’t have an emulator available.
• Emulators on Github macOS ARM also don’t work due to the Hypervisor not being available
