Does not work on Mac Mini M1 about mlscpu

Found out that for Apple Silicon Macs, you can use sysctl hw to get info, output looks like this for me:

Probably difficult to render in lscpu style, since there are 4 fast and 4 slow cores w/ different cache sizes and clock speeds.

Wow, thanks for this! Yep, I'll include a caveat in the README for now. Thanks for the StackExchange link. I'll keep this issue open and see if I can add support for Apple Silicon.
