feat(docker): add multi-arch buildx workflow (linux/amd64 + linux/arm64) #1

Workflow file for this run

name: Build Multi-Arch Images
# Builds linux/amd64 + linux/arm64 images for the backend and frontend
# using Docker Buildx, publishes to GHCR on pushes to main, and produces
# per-arch tags plus a multi-arch manifest index — satisfying issue #172.
#
# Acceptance criteria:
# docker manifest inspect ghcr.io/<owner>/vertexchain-backend:latest
# → lists both linux/amd64 and linux/arm64 digests.
