Help wanted: the first run of proofcut on an Apple silicon Mac #1

Description

@tydude001

No person has run proofcut on an Apple silicon Mac yet. An Intel Mac has run it end to end (#6), and GitHub's Apple silicon runner takes the demo to a checked render on every change. But a runner is a fresh machine that already has Homebrew and never reads the instructions.

If you have an M-series Mac and half an hour:

git clone https://github.com/tydude001/proofcut
bash proofcut/scripts/mac_trial.sh

It asks before it starts. It installs uv, ffmpeg-full, espeak-ng and auto-editor with Homebrew (and Homebrew itself if you don't have it), the Shotcut app for its renderer, and whisper. Then it makes a short test video in ~/proofcut-mac-trial and has proofcut cut it, score it, render and master it, and check the render. It puts proofcut-mac-report.zip on your Desktop with your home folder's name taken out.

Then file a Mac test report and drag the zip in. A run that stops partway helps just as much, because where it stops is what I need to know.

bash proofcut/scripts/mac_trial.sh --uninstall removes what the script installed and nothing you already had.

If you're starting a run, a comment here saves someone else doing the same one. More Intel runs are welcome too; on Intel, the script downloads the tools into ~/proofcut-mac-trial instead of using Homebrew.
