Pants

I thought I was losing my mind as to why the pants-downloaded protoc `protoc-3.20.1-osx-aarch_64.zip` was not working on my M1 mac but it was because of <https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf/issues/9893> .
&gt; We are hoping to fix this soon, but this is to be expected right now. The published Mac aarch64 binaries are actually just x86-64 binaries but we will soon start publishing real binaries for M1 Macs.
:disappointed: May try another fix there just like shellcheck, but the <https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/19940|coursier M1 pants fix> I am not sure how to proceed with.

It is beyond my abilities of comprehension why one would knowingly publish a doomed binary

making a small PR adding a few more known versions but not changing the default version. It works fine for more recent versions, fortunately.

Oof.. That other tool we have does that as well. One of the linters I think
