Error precompiling with Julia 1.7 on an M1 Macbook

[pazzo83]

Hi - I recently installed Julia 1.7-beta3 version specifically for the M1 (ARM) Mac, and I get the following exception when Julia tries to precompile BinaryProvider:

┌ Warning: Platform `arm64-apple-darwin20.5.0` is not an officially supported platform

I assume this is because this package is not yet ready to work with binaries for the ARM-based Macs. Just thought I would flag it here.

Thanks!!

Bump.
I see same precompilation error with native Julia 1.7.0 on M1 Max.
Works fine on Rosetta2.

BinaryProvider.jl was last updated an year and half ago before Apple Silicon Macs came out. Not surprising the platform is showing up as "unknown". What's needed to update it to make it run natively on M1 macs?

I have the same issue. This prevents from using the Julia 1.7 on M1 (without Rosetta2):

┌ Warning: Platform `arm64-apple-darwin21.2.0` is not an officially supported platform
└ @ BinaryProvider ~/.julia/packages/BinaryProvider/U2dKK/src/PlatformNames.jl:450
ERROR: LoadError: KeyError: key "unknown" not found

Can anyone jump in?
