Raised processor instruction set to AVX, because all macOS 11 supported Apple models have AVX.

The 2.5 buildenv contains Qt6.5, which has macOS 11 as minimum system requirement: https://doc.qt.io/qt-6.5/supported-platforms.html#desktop-platforms
Therefore I raised the mimimum required macOS version to 11.0.
The x86_64 computer models supported by macOS 11 are very limited, I checked, that each of them has a processor with AVX instruction set. Therefore AVX is set as default for macOS now.
I've no Mac myself and can't verify/measure that the setting does, what it should.
