As promised, Thunderbird running native aarch64 binaries on Apple
Silicon-based hardware juist landed in comm-central. This included the
conversion of the macOS DMG downloads to Universal binaries.

A complete update to the Thunderbird:AArch64 wiki page
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird:AArch64 is coming tomorrow.

I just verified that today's Daily (2021-01-29) runs on the mac M1 I
have here.

I noticed that about:buildconfig is very confusing for these Universal
binary packages as the non-binary data is all from the x86_64 build so
no mention of ARM/Aarch64 there.

In the Troubleshooting Information is a line "Rosetta Translated". When
it is on "false" on a M1 Mac it should use the aarch64 binaries.
