Update macOS install instructions
On macOS, Homebrew will install OpenSSL to different locations depending
on which architecture you're on (Intel or ARM). It also doesn't put the
headers and library files in the default search path for gcc.
This added instruction in the doc/install.md aligns with a similar
instruction for BSD and is architecture and OpenSSL version agnostic
(because it just asks Homebrew to tell us what the prefix is).
pkg-config could easily work across platforms or the lookup could be
configured to test for homebrew, but I didn't want to make a much bigger
change to the autoconf script.
