added Mac OS nightly builds (#8)
* Only x86_64 builds are supported for the time being.
They have been tested on Mac OS 10.15 (Darling) and 11 (thanks to @dertuxmalwieder).
* Curses glitches remain on Mac OS as reported by @dertuxmalwieder.
Under Darling with a Linux terminal emulator, everything looks as it should.
* We don't build AppBundles or pkg installers but instead came up with a rather
ideosyncratic way of packaging:
The packages are tarballs of the installation tree with all dependant libraries
added under /usr/local/lib/sciteco - thanks to dylibbundler.
The archives are supposed to be unpacked into the UNIX tree root (`tar -C / -xf sciteco.tar`)
and it will be necessary to "de-quarantine" all the binaries.
Details will be documented in the wiki:
https://github.com/rhaberkorn/sciteco/wiki/Mac-OS-Support
* Perhaps we will also ship an installation script (TODO).
* AppBundles would have the disadvantage that they cannot be directly installed
into $PATH. On the other hand, this would be relatively easy to do afterwards.
An AppBundle would need certain code adaptions for Mac OS, though.
* Gtk+ builds are not yet supported as I cannot test them with "Darling".
* All Nightly Build artifact names now mention the target architecture.
* build Win32 nightly builds with windows-2019
* May improve compatibility slightly in the future as we should
always build our binaries on the oldest possible system.
* Does not change anything currently since windows-2019 == windows-latest.
* CI still uses windows-latest and may therefore one day switch to windows-2022.
* updated README
