Updates to INSTALL.md for Apple Silicon Macs

Browse Source 
Apple Silicon Macs new default bash installs Homebrew in a different directory than Intel macs, and thus breaks compatibility of some of the build commands. New notes are added specifically for Apple Silicon Mac users.

There was previous discussion in the pokeemerald discord that helped verify these additional requirements for Apple Silicon Macs, and thus should also be changed in that repo's INSTALL.md
