This PR contains two modifications to the project README.md:
According to the Python.org page's release notes for Python 3.9, that was the first version that supported native Apple ARM64 silicon. While there may be a way to build previous versions for Apple M[1-3] systems, I was running into a lot of build issues on Python versions 3.7 & 3.8 relating to ctypes and libffi, which posts on Stack Overflow suggested either updating to a new Python minor version, or modifying some system library scripts.
I wrote a package.yml for opencanaryd to run via pkgx, which should allow for install-less use natively on Linux and MacOS targets on both AMD64 and ARM64 (only tested on Linux, but the CI/CD pipeline verified it can at least run the --version option on all platforms). I added the documentation for how to use it into README.md.
