c180c911b88b2bd2baf2c9c2b24e276787ffb69b doc: revamp macOS build doc (Jarol Rodriguez)
Pull request description:
This PR makes the macOS build-docs more informative and adds in the following information:
- Proper descriptions and delineation of required/optional dependencies
- walk-through of optional dependencies
- configuration walk-through
- various other tidbits of information
This is a part of the efforts done in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/20601 and https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/20610 to update the docs and introduce some consistency between them.
This update does not add instructions for arm-based M1 Macbooks as I do not have one to test with. It would be nice to have someone follow up with an update containing instructions for arm-based Macs.

**After/PR:** [render](
