Github Action MacOSX revamp

dlmiles commented 1 month ago

The FREAD macro name is renamed due to clash with sys/fcntl.h in Xcode SDK on MacOSX.

The GHA will build for both legacy x86_64 and newer ARM64 platforms.

The configure_mac resolves an issue with the wrong X/Xlib.h header being included due to a (bad) copy being bundled with tk-tcl when the copy from quartz is the one needed.

Updated: Somehow lost TMPFILE=value assignment in YML during final prepare

Next iteration on MacOS CI in Github Acton:

diagnostics improved
autoconf X11 compiler/linker switches fixed (maybe this wasn't causing an issue, but manual inspection of the -L/usr/X11/lib placement indicated it would have no effect at the end of the linker options)
Github Action Summary output (everything you might want to know is listed)
Performs install
Performs kick the tyres testing, to confirm it runs without crashing
It prepares download files with what is built (maybe the binaries work, maybe they don't, I try to solicit feedback) As before:
Builds for x86_64 and ARM64 MacOS
