Windows on ARM (ARM64) Support - Companion AND Satellite

[cpuguru07]

Is this a feature relevant to companion itself, and not a module?

• I believe this to be a feature for companion, not a module

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Describe the feature

With Qualcom's new X Elite chips and the new wave of Copilot+ PCs, I'd like to see ARM64 native versions of Companion and Satellite to run more efficiently on these Windows on ARM systems.

Builds are already provided for Mac ARM and Linux ARM, so it shouldn't be a stretch to build these for Windows on ARM.

Usecases

Already have a Surface Laptop 7 with the new chipset - looking forward to improved efficiencies of a native Windows ARM64 version.

While this is technically a duplicate of #2207, Ill close that in favor of this one

I am open to this, but I think it will be a bit challenging to achieve.
I have not seen prebuilt binaries for windows-arm in any of the native libraries we use, which complicates this.
But mostly, someone who is willing to work on it will need some hardware to test on. I don't have anything specifically for windows arm, so while I am tempted to look at this, will struggle to do anything without a way of testing

Another challenge here is that we use node18, which does not (officially) support windows arm64.
Even once we update to 22, modules will still wanting to run on 18. Perhaps we could ignore this for windows-arm and force then to run on 22 so that they run, even if it does risk unexpected errors.

Satellite should be easier, as it is a simpler application
