DB2 Database Server/Container for arm64 linux

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

Currently the db2 database provided by the community edition only supports the following operating systems/architectures:
* Microsoft Windows (x64)
* Linux (x64)
* Linux (IBM Z)
* Linux (Power PC)
* IBM AIX

This means that running the database on any arm64 machine (via a container) is painfully slow due to the need for x64 to arm64 emulation.

It'd be amazing to have a version of the db2 database that runs on arm64 linux. This would greatly speed up local development times. Thank you for all the support y'all provide!!
