Is the requirement for AVX instructions really required? #14

Description

@wadebee

Some Intel chips (like the Pentium N6000 on my Chromebook) do not support the AVX CPU instruction.

npm installation of v0.73.0 for linux-x64 fails with "Illegal instruction (core dumped)"

Asking ChatGPT "is the AVX instruction really required for installation of tessl" it responds:

The tessl CLI itself does not have a stated hard requirement for AVX, but the "Illegal instruction" error occurs because the pre-compiled binary you are trying to run was likely built for a modern x86-64 microarchitecture level (like x86-64-v3) that assumes AVX is present.
