Install proxychains-ng on macOS m1/m2 arm64e natively without Rosetta 2 (2023)

proxychains-ng_m1.txt

Problem:

```bash
brew install proxychains-ng 
proxychains4 ncat 1.2.3.4 # not working
```

There are public workarounds like https://benobi.one/posts/running_brew_on_m1_for_x86/ 
which suggests to use brew's x86_64 version or run the proxychains4 binary with `arch -x86_64`.
This seems to be working, but it hurts performance (with Rosetta 2 emulator). 

Here we can find the proxychains4 binary, in which, it runs natively on our beloved M1/M2 chips <3

Solution:
# M1/M2 supports arm64e, but we need to enable it.
# https://developer.apple.com/documentation/driverkit/debugging_and_testing_system_extensions#3626024
# Tested on macOS 13.2.1 (2023)

# shutdown & long press Power button to recovery mode -> Terminal
csrutil disable
# reboot to normal mode
# enable arm64e support
sudo nvram boot-args=-arm64e_preview_abi
# reboot
Then,

```bash
git clone https://github.com/rofl0r/proxychains-ng 
cd proxychains-ng 
CFLAGS="-arch arm64e" LDFLAGS="-arch arm64e" ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --bindir=/usr/local/bin --libdir=/usr/local/lib --fat-binary-m1
make

$ file ./proxychains4

can any one compile a m1 version for every one to download that?
