Apple Silicon has a minimum electron version

Thanks for the contribution @Braymatter !

In order to develop for this project on Apple Silicon, yes, Electron version 11+ is required (link to blog announcement). Note that nothing in the project requires v11, so no updated release of the package is necessary. The package will run on whichever version the host electron app bundles, though that must be v11+ if they want to target Apple Silicon.
