Publish gperftools-based builds

[PKizzle]

As discussed in #15235 devices with a page table size of 3 are not able to run builds based on Google's tcmalloc.
Changing the page table size to 4 requires a kernel rebuild. This is especially relevant for RaspberryPi owners.
Therfore until issues google/tcmalloc#82 or raspberrypi/linux#4375 are closed envoy versions >= 1.17 should also be published using gperftools' tcmalloc.

I don't think we have the resources to do a separate build/image for this. I suppose we could make the contrib ARM image use the other malloc? I would need to see if it causes a full source rebuild or not.

@mattklein123 were you able to test whether building the contrib arm image using gperftools’ tcmalloc works?

I haven't tested. I'm pretty sure it will cause almost a complete rebuild but feel free to try it out.

I compiled envoy using the envoy-proxy/envoy-build-ubuntu docker image by adding BAZEL_BUILD_EXTRA_OPTIONS="--define tcmalloc=gperftools" and rerunning the build without it. It seems like it is doing a full rebuild 🙁
Still an arm64 image with that tcmalloc option would be nice to have for all RaspberryPi owners
