Wez Furlong 42b95cd413 ci: generate universal binaries for macOS
This persuades the CI to install both the arm and intel flavors
of the rust toolchain on macOS, and the deploy script to generate
a universal binary.

* need big sur to build for M1
* Use cross-compilation compatible mlua from my fork for now

Installing on macOS

The CI system builds the package on macOS Mojave (10.14). It may run on earlier versions of macOS, but that has not been tested.

If you have an M1-based mac then it is recommended that you download the Nightly build which is a Universal binary with support for both Apple Silicon and Intel hardware.

Download for macOS Nightly for macOS

  1. Download Release

If you'd like to use a nightly build you can perform a head install:
