Make compatible with arm64 brew, test on older and latest macos, strip away no longer needed windows test env exclusion

[yarikoptic]

expecting that macos-latest testing would not succeed. We might want to add explicitly macos-12 and then new macos-latest which would be arm

I think that does it - all checks, including macos-latest, passed.

For additional verification, I tried this in a stripped-out test run on macos-latest (i.e. macos-14-arm64) in a throwaway repo: install the installer from this branch with pip, install git-annex with the installer, install DataLad with pip, and, instead of tests, only run which and ask about versions. It gave me the following, suggesting everything lands correctly on PATH:

/Users/runner/hostedtoolcache/Python/3.11.9/arm64/bin/datalad
/opt/homebrew/bin/git
/opt/homebrew/bin/git-annex
datalad 1.0.2
git version 2.44.0
git-annex version: 10.20240227

I'd say it's good to go.

dropped TEMP commit, force pushed, adjusted title to reflect included changes, marking for release.

@yarikoptic the release action crashed - what on earth happened there? https://github.com/datalad/datalad-installer/actions/runs/8834788909/job/24257350453

edit: ok, I think I know. For some reason the release workflow downloads an old version of auto; the issue manifested recently (some change on GitHub side?) and the latest (actually two patches back) release addressed it... Will open an issue with more details or go straight to PR.

merged my "fix" #198 , waiting on result

I also just realized that the version was simply pinned - I'll keep my fingers crossed 🤞

FWIW -- 1.0.5 was just released so all is good. I am rerunning brew job I had https://github.com/datalad/datalad/actions/runs/8820905835?pr=7586 in datalad/datalad#7586 which if passes is IMHO worth merging to get us 1 step closer there
