ci: Add Apple silicon macOS to CI (#2447)

* Add Apple M1 runner to tests using 'macos-14' for the 'runs-on' key.
   - c.f. https://github.blog/changelog/2024-01-30-github-actions-introducing-the-new-m1-macos-runner-available-to-open-source/
* Lower the tolerance for tests/test_calculator.py to reach agreement
  between amd64 and arm64.
* Skip doctest evaluation for arm64.
