Use the Metal renderer by default on all Macs

Browse Source 
Whatever dGPU/eGPU rendering issues existed at the time I wrote that check seem to no longer happen on my RX 480 eGPU test setup running Ventura (our oldest supported OS).

It seems safe enough to enable now, especially since 7d6ce0b4c should catch broken systems and transparently fall back to AVSampleBufferDisplayLayer.

Fixes #1885
