Statically link ARM64 for use on Alpine phone

Hi there,
I'm trying to get 1password running on PostmarketOS. The challenge is it's Alpine Linux based, so it uses musl libc instead of glibc. It seems that the arm64 build of 1password (including the beta) is looking for glibc symbols, and installing gcompat is not enough (gcompat really only works for very simple binaries).

The normal suggestions of using containers to run glibc binaries on Alpine aren't good for extremely resource constrained systems like old linux phones.

Password manager support from a multi-platform provider is a pretty big hole in the linux phone market right now, and this would make a big impact. Your linux features would be extremely useful on a linux phone, particularly unlocking 1password with the system secret store.

Any possibility of shipping a statically linked build for arm64/aarch64? I'm a developer myself, and can provide you with more information if you need it.
