Opening v3.98.9 built from sources on macos m1 crashes with "Cannot destructure property 'promisify' of 'fh' as it is undefined"

• This is not a feature request (existing functionality does not work, not missing functionality).
  I will request features on forum or via support.
• I've searched and did not find a similar issue.

Describe the bug
On macos 12.4, macbook m1 pro, running 3.98.9 built from source crashes on startup.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Try to build tutanota-release-3.98.9 from source
2. Install .dmg
3. Attempt to launch app
4. See error

Expected behavior
Desktop app launches without crash.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: macOS v12.4
• npm v8.12.1
• node v18.5.0

Additional context

I first applied patch @charlag suggested from #4091 to update architecture to arm64: hkjn@a099a5a.

Error when launching app is:

Uncaught Exception:
TypeError: Cannot destructure property 'promisify' of 'fh' as it is undefined.

Hi
It is not enough to just swap target architecture, I answered this for #4413 already.

Thanks for the reply, @charlag.

Pulling together the info from your replies on #4413, the hints for how to produce the desktop app from source code for MacOS with ARM64 is:

It is not enough to just swap target architecture
If you want to build with ARM as a target you would need to give it correct OpenSSL build in some way.
You would need to fork our fork of better-sqlite3-sqlcipher to add arm prebuild instead of x86 prebuilt of openssl there and then it should just work

So can we get https:/tutao/tutanota/blob/master/doc/BUILDING.md updated to describe these steps in enough detail so that they can be followed?

How were the releases on https://tutanota.com for MacOS produced?

Please see #4439 for hints on ARM builds.

Once we will be supporting ARM first-party no additional steps will be necessary.
