Incompatibilities with ARM64 macOS ("Apple silicon")

[pixelcmtd]

Minecraft-wise, the Apple silicon transition has been kinda funny. The oldest version that just works without any tweaking on my Mac is 1.19-pre1, all old versions (up to 22w17a) can't find a Java Runtime, and two snapshots are just crashing at launch (22w18a and 22w19a). CXClient 3.2 obviously doesn't work either, as it is heavily based on 1.8.8 (and the whole 1.8 line in general). I'll have to investigate...

Good god...I think it's probably caused by LWJGL 2 not supporting it, obviously, at least in Mojang's builds. I really don't wanna have to update to LWJGL 3, but that might not be a problem, as we might be able to just use a custom build of v2.9.something.

A possible fix is just documenting how to use an x86_64 build of Java in the Minecraft launcher, and staring at MultiMC for a few hours.

I use the basic Minecraft launcher and a amd64 java and it works fine (M1 Pro). Didn't tried out in ManyMC yet tho
