Update macos docs with wezterm CLI installation (#2619) 
* Update macos docs with wezterm CLI installation

wezterm binary is not by default available in shells like the default zsh or bash, on macos we need to explicitly add the path to the wezterm binaries inside the WezTerm.app

* Update docs/install/macos.markdown

Installing on macOS

The CI system builds the package on macOS Big Sur and should run on systems as "old" as Mojave. It may run on earlier versions of macOS, but that has not been tested.

Starting with version 20210203-095643-70a364eb, WezTerm is a Universal binary with support for both Apple Silicon and Intel hardware.

Download for macOS Nightly for macOS

  1. Download Release
  2. Extract the zipfile and drag the WezTerm.app bundle to your Applications folder
  3. First time around, you may need to right click and select Open to allow launching the application that your just downloaded from the internet.
  4. Subsequently, a simple double-click will launch the UI
  5. To use wezterm binary from a terminal emulator, like wezterm ls-fonts you'll need to add the location to the wezterm binary folder that exists inside the WezTerm.app, to your environment's $PATH value. For example, to add it to your ~/.zshrc file, and assuming your WezTerm.app was installed to /Applications, add:
PATH="$PATH:/Applications/WezTerm.app/Contents/MacOS"
export PATH
