Subject: [PATCH 1/2] [GitHub] Fix slow sccache install on macOS by upgrading
 macOS version

The "Setup ccache" step on macOS-11 builds takes between 15 to 20 mins,
whereas this step takes a less than 10 seconds on other runners.
The bulk of this time is spent at the "Install sccache" step, where brew
emits warnings like "Warning: You are using macOS 11." and
"We (and Apple) do not provide support for this old version...".

Bumping the version of macOS greatly decreases this cache setup time to
about 20 seconds. Furthermore, it seems like it is speeding up general
build times, too.

It appears that https://github.com/actions/virtual-environments/issues/5900
has been resolved, so I do not believe we need to lock macOS to 11 anymore.
