[C++] Debugging Arrow with lldb on macOS/AArch64 is difficult due to OpenSSL

Describe the enhancement requested

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/74059978/why-is-lldb-generating-exc-bad-instruction-with-user-compiled-library-on-macos

Basically: OpenSSL tries to detect processor features by just executing bad instructions, and on AArch64, lldb doesn't like that and effectively prevents you from debugging the program (you just get stuck on bad instruction breakpoints a lot). While it can be worked around, it looks like upgrading or downgrading OpenSSL would avoid this in the first place (e.g. openssl/openssl#20753)

Anyone know what the workaround is? I tried this in lldb and it still gets stuck trapping on openssl poking at ARM instructions...
