Cade Andersen d067ce19c3 fix(macos): trust osrf/simulation tap in --sim-tools block (#27891)
Homebrew 6.0+ refuses to load formulae from untrusted third-party taps. This adds a trusted block for OSRF taps.

## Basch script to setup the PX4 development environment on macOS
## Works for Intel and Arm based Apple hardware
##
## Installs:
## - Common dependencies and tools for building PX4
## - Cross compilers for building hardware targets using NuttX
## - With --sim-tools: Gazebo Harmonic and jMAVSim simulation stack
##
## Homebrew 4.5+ no longer auto-resolves cross-tap dependencies, so
## every tap and package is listed explicitly here rather than hidden
## behind meta-formulae. See PX4/homebrew-px4#104 for background.
