The miner compiles and runs on Raspberry Pi 4B, and compiles for all version of armv8 with our without AES or SHA2 or both.
What works:
* All algorithms except Hodl are working, some optimized, see below.
* All algorithms except Verthash are working, Hodl is untested and unknown.
* Unoptimized: Sha256dt, Blake2s, Scryptn
* stratum+ssl and stratum+tcp are working, GBT is untested.
* CPU and SW feature detection and reporting is working, algo features in progress, CPU brand not yet implemented.

* No detection of ARM minor version number.
* NEON may not be displayed in algo features for some algos that may support it.
* Algos may show support for NEON even if it's disabled or not yet implemented.

* AES & SHA2 are enabled but untested.
* There is no working version of Verthash on ARM, even pure compiled C code. The same code compiled for x86_64 works.
* Sha256 & Sha512 Parallel N-way are disabled. They work on X86_64.
* Sha256dt, Sha256t, Sha256d unoptimized.
