Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Apple has a new processor, M1, with an ARM architecture instead of the previous Intel architecture.
Intel binaries will be run on M1 through an emulation layer.
Applications can be universal and have an Intel and M1 binary so they can run the best version depending on the machine's architecture.

Describe the solution you'd like
Make sure the officially distributed macOS binary is universal; it run natively on Intel and M1 architectures.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Do nothing. The build probably produces an Intel binary now, which will transparently run through the emulation layer.
