[R-SIG-Mac] Issue with Installer on Mac OS Ventura 13.4

[Duncan Murdoch]

Adrian's comment reminded me of a post from Simon on Feb 8:

> Apparently there is a bug in Ventura that prevents software installation from the Downloads folder. Once the installer package is moved someplace else - the home or Desktop - it works. So if you see "Installation failed", make sure you move the package (typically that would be the R-4.2.2-arm64.pkg file) out of the Downloads folder. (Thanks to Max for sending the installer log so we could trace the cause!).
