bug: Quickemu searches for x86_64 CPU flags on aarch64 platforms

Describe the bug I am trying to run macOS Mojave on an M1 Mac (obviously this is only possible via emulation and not virtualization). So I tried to use UTM, but at least the pre-config versions at https://github.com/adespoton/utmconfigs gave way to less VRAM and screen resolution. So I stumbled upon quickemu and gave this a try. Followed the instructions and got the following output/error:

$ ./quickemu --vm macos-mojave.conf
Quickemu 4.9.6 using /opt/homebrew/bin/gemu-system-x86_64 v9.1.0
- Host:
macOS 14.1.1 running Darwin 23.1.0 MBP
ERROR! macOS mojave requires a CPU with SSE 4.1 support.

Is there something I am missing?

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. On M1 Mac with macOS 14:
2. $ ./quickget macos mojave
3. $ ./quickemu --vm macos-mojave.conf
