  1. Never try to limit memory on macOS 

    We can't limit memory on macOS. Before macOS 12
limitSystemMemoryOnPOSIX() does not actually do anything on macOS.
Anyway, it just succeed, since macOS 12 it returns error and retdec
can't start.

To be honest Apple can control memmory limit via so-called the ledger()
system call which is private. An old verison which was opened to
OpenSource (from 10.9-10.10?) using setrlimit() but at some point
setrlimit() was broken and not ledger(). Probably at macOS 12 the
setrlimit() was completley broken.

Because we haven't got any other choose just return true which haven't
change anything.
