We need the QEMU binary signed to be able to use HVF. Improve the following:
$ ./qemu-system-aarch64-unsigned -M virt -accel hvf qemu-system-aarch64-unsigned: -accel hvf: Error: ret = HV_DENIED (0xfae94007, at ../../accel/hvf/hvf-accel-ops.c:339) Abort trap: 6 to: $ ./qemu-system-aarch64-unsigned -M virt -accel hvf qemu-system-aarch64-unsigned: -accel hvf: Could not access HVF. Is the executable signed with com.apple.security.hypervisor entitlement?
