Re-do of #908 with squashed commits.
I made some basic switches in the Makefile so now it's possible to build and run on macOS without Rosetta 2.
Without knowing maintainer plans, I have it display a warning that arm64 (not aarch64) is not officially supported. If project leadership wishes to officially support this configuration, recommended as this is Apple's architecture going forward, we can remove the warning.
I made an effort to support assembly functionality for the new dynarec as part of #831, but it is either beyond my abilities or not feasible at this time. Regardless, the emulator passes the tests without this element, so I am presuming there is no drawback to releasing with NO_ASM for darwin-arm64.
