P2 Badge Preserve Intel Homebrew install path

For Intel users on macOS 14+, this new command resolves to the Homebrew/homebrew-cask codexbar cask, whose current metadata has depends_on arch: :arm64; Homebrew will reject the install before downloading the universal release. The previous tap cask does not declare that arm64-only constraint, so this README change removes the only Homebrew install path that works for Intel Macs despite the Requirements section still saying only macOS 14+ is needed.

P2 Badge Keep the Homebrew upgrade path consistent

When users follow this new install command, Homebrew installs still disable Sparkle and the app’s About/update hint in Sources/CodexBar/CodexbarApp.swift:320 tells them to run brew upgrade --cask steipete/tap/codexbar. That no longer matches the cask they installed from this README path, so official-cask users are sent to a different tap/token for updates unless the in-app Homebrew guidance is updated at the same time.
