Any thoughts on how we can determine the Platform for remote execution? This seems complicated by the idea that they can run Docker containers

I found this TODO:

``` // TODO if we ever want to configure the remote platform to be something else we
          // need to take an option all the way down here and into the remote::CommandRunner struct.
          Platform::Linux_x86_64,```

&gt;  This seems complicated by the idea that they can run Docker containers
I think it's theoretically possible for your RE env to be linux x86, but you use a Docker image for arm64, for example?

The simplest solution is to do what we did for `docker_environment`, have a `platform` field. I'm not sure if linux x86 is a reasonable default, or it should be a required field

linux/x86 is a reasonable default. the three major remote execution projects only run on Linux.
