Add Gatekeeper instructions for installing #42

Closed rogiervandenberg closed 3 years ago

chmod +x makes things executable, which does not solve this authorization problem. The issue is that Apples Gatekeeper restricts the apps to be executed. My change explains how to bulk set all applications under the cmd/ folder into approved, as if you would have manually seen the warning once for each of the 5 executables inside the workflow and approving them via System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General, but now in just 1 go and you're done 🎉

Perhaps this should even be an official installation step, as recent MacOS versions will always nag you about this. 🤔 Therefore I have added that sentence to the Install part too. Thank you for creating this!!
