Request for Apple Silicon Support

[Crear12]

Hi valgur, Thank you for providing such an amazing tool. I moved my work flow from an intel MacBook Pro to the Silicon environment, the installation cannot work, tried both pip install velodyne-decoder (cannot install) and pip install git+https://github.com/valgur/velodyne_decoder.git (says installed successfully, but the vd.Config(model="Alpha Prime", rpm=600) cannot be created.

Error Message:
    config = vd.Config(model="Alpha Prime", rpm=600)
TypeError: __init__(): incompatible constructor arguments. The following argument types are supported:
    1. velodyne_decoder.velodyne_decoder_pylib.Config(*, model: Optional[velodyne_decoder::ModelId] = None, calibration: Optional[velodyne_decoder::Calibration] = None, single_return_mode_info: bool = False, min_range: float = 0.1, max_range: float = 200, min_angle: float = 0, max_angle: float = 360, cut_angle: Optional[float] = None, timestamp_first_packet: bool = False, use_device_time: bool = False)

Invoked with: kwargs: model='Alpha Prime', rpm=600

Thanks again, Crear

Hi!

I recently switched the default branch to develop on the repo. One of the changes there is that the model and rpm params are detected automatically from the packets, so the params are pretty much unnecessary now.

You can either continue using the master branch with pip install git+https://github.com/valgur/velodyne_decoder.git@master or drop the model and rpm params from the config (or the config param itself altogether).

Regarding Apple Silicon, starting from the next 3.0.0 release, velodyne_decoder will definitely include Apple Silicon and other ARM architectures for the PyPI wheels as well.
