Research direction

Start by reviewing the OpenMP warning shown in the issue and the linked mac.r-project.org/openmp and data.table installation pages. Identify where this message is maintained, then determine an appropriate Apple support or feedback URL to reference. Done means Mac users are given a clear place to engage with Apple.

Description

openmp platform-specific
**********
This installation of data.table has not detected OpenMP support. It should still work but in single-threaded mode.
This is a Mac. Please read https://mac.r-project.org/openmp/. Please engage with Apple and ask them for support. Check r-datatable.com for updates, and our Mac instructions here: https://github.com/Rdatatable/data.table/wiki/Installation. After several years of many reports of installation problems on Mac, it's time to gingerly point out that there have been no similar problems on Windows or Linux.
**********

Could you please tell us users how / where we should engage with Apple? Like give us a preferred URL to start on?
