ci: remove Python version comment from mac config
What changed, and why it matters
This commit simply removes two comment lines explaining why a Python package-installation flag is used in a macOS CI configuration file. No code, commands, or behavior change. It is not a security fix and has no security relevance.
No action needed; this is a non-functional documentation cleanup in CI configuration.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The diff deletes explanatory comments about Homebrew’s python@3.12 being externally managed (PEP 668) and the resulting need for --break-system-packages. The actual PIP_PACKAGES="--break-system-packages zmq" line remains unchanged. There are no functional changes to CI behavior, build scripts, or Bitcoin Core code.
