Description
`gsutil help crcmod` says on macos gsutil should come with crcmod precompiled and to open a support request when the auto-detection fails.
Here is my `gsutil version -l` output:
```
gsutil version: 5.35
checksum: 463ae9998133cda1b7d55035f3d5e7b9 (OK)

multiprocessing available: True

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with `gsutil help crcmod` and reproduce the report using `gsutil version -l` on macOS. Trace how gsutil determines whether compiled crcmod is available, then compare that result with the documented expectation. Done means the detection accurately reflects the installed crcmod state or the supported macOS behavior is clearly documented.
