Research direction

Start at the code that displays the download link and inspect how the user's architecture is matched to available builds. Update the download area to avoid offering an incompatible build, list links for all available architectures, show a message for unsupported architectures, and include the build guide link.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Currently the code for displaying the link does not check if the user's architecture matches the available download link. (ex: aarch64 will show x86-64 download link)
It would be good to support more architectures, but also good to provide a message explaining that we don't have a prebuilt version for their architecture. Then supply all the links for the architectures, along with a link to the build guide so that they can easily build locally.
