How to install / compile Ceres on the MacBook Pro M1 Max? #77

Or what needs to be done to make it happen?

Note that it is possible to compile and run LC0 and Stockfish and other engines on the MacBook Pro M1 Max.

Currently only CUDA devices are supported (either Windows or Linux) due to their overwhelming performance superiority to CPU. However it is true that recent M1 chips have much improved speed. I have begun work on a Mac port and have the basic engine running, but am still experimenting with backend options that would unlock all of the GPU capabilities (hopefully MPS via ONNX). Hopefully within a few months this work can be completed.
