nFPM is not translating architecture to the platform specific equivalent.

[dosten]

What happened?

Hi!

After reading the docs about the arch field, I supposed that setting it to something like x86_64 (that's the output of uname -m) will translate it to amd64 which is one of the valid architecture types for deb packages.

Looking at the code I found that's not the case, it's just renaming a few cases.

We should add some more common renames like:

• aarch64 -> arm64
• x86_64 -> amd64

If you agree I can send a PR.

How can we reproduce this?

Create a nfpm.yaml with

arch: x86_64

nfpm version

2.41.3

hey, yes!

fwiw, we have been roughly translating Go naming conventions to the specific platforms

Probably worth updating those tables as well then, and probably the title of the docs hehe
