Description

Downloaded [bazelisk-darwin-arm64](https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazelisk/releases/download/v1.16.0/bazelisk-darwin-arm64), tried to run it and got this pop up:

"“bazel” can’t be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software. This software needs to be updated. Contact the developer for more information."

Research direction

Reproduce the failure on an M1 Mac using the bazelisk-darwin-arm64 artifact from release v1.16.0. Inspect the release artifact and its distribution metadata; done means the downloaded launcher can be opened without Apple's malicious-software warning.
