Hi, thank you for making this tool!

I find it invaluable for gathering bug reports for my own projects. However I find that I'd like one additional bit of information when it's available: binary architecture.

To give you a concrete example, in a bug report such as fwouts/previewjs#236, I'd like to know whether VS Code is a 32 bit or 64 bit version. Similarly on MacOS with M1 chips, I often want to know whether the binary is ARM or x64. See fwouts/previewjs#51 for one such example.

This information is already available for VS Code, for example on my M1 Mac:

$ code --version
1.64.2
f80445acd5a3dadef24aa209168452a3d97cc326
arm64

I wonder if including the binary architecture, when it's available, is something you've considered?

I'd be happy to try sending a PR specifically for VS Code :) It looks like that wouldn't be a big change in https://github.com/tabrindle/envinfo/blob/main/src/helpers/ides.js#L152?
