Added a more detailed guide on how to use docker on mac.


## Why Do I Need to Do This When My Windows/Linux Friends Don't Need Docker
The most important problem with M1 macs is that valgrind is currently [not supported](https://valgrind.org/info/platforms.html) (as of 09/2022). As we require memory correctness in our MP's, valgrind is a necessity.
Even if you don't use valgrind, you will find that low-level systems programming on the M1 natively will provide you with many annoyances. Apple is increasingly very concerned about the [security](https://www.dictionary.com/browse/control) of its users. Thus trying to do some semi-sketchy low level stuff like sideloading an unsigned by apple malloc implementation in MP3 may give you problems.
