Merged #1030 as 944c358f, adding ARM64 Python unit/integration test runners and fixing architecture-specific test failures; residual fetch-service coverage moved to #1032.
Resolution: closed resolved
Reason: PR #1030 was approved and merged as commit 944c358f. It enabled ARM64 Python test jobs and adjusted affected tests; complex fetch-service tests were marked amd64-only with follow-up work tracked in #1032.

This runs the unit and integration tests on ARM64 runners and fixes several test issues found when enabling this.
Some fetch service tests wound up being fairly complex to fix so I marked them as amd64-only and made https://github.com/canonical/craft-application/issues/1032.
This is a prerequisite for #1027 and required for CRAFT-4992
