1901618 - CI builds need Rosetta to load tests

While preparing https://github.com/mozilla/application-services/pull/6214, I was faced with cryptic "launchd failed to run" errors when circle CI's M1 runners were trying to have the simulator load our tests.

Turns out, the reason I couldn't reproduce locally is because I had rosetta installed, and installing rosetta on the circle ci runner fixed the issue.
We should figure out why rosetta was needed and change up our xcframework build scripts if it is the cause (I struggle to think of other causes)

Also worth noting here that with our move to Mozilla Central we might want to overhaul how our CI runs, so this might not be relevant soon :)
