Fix 'yarn setup' on M1 Macs (#11887)
There are a few issues encountered when running `yarn setup` on new
Apple Silicon (aka M1, aka arm64) Macs:

* The script halts when attempting to run the install step for
  the `chromedriver` package with the message "Only Mac 64 bits
  supported". This is somewhat misleading as it seems to indicate that
  chromedriver can only be installed on a 64-bit Mac. However, what I
  think is happening is that the installation script for `chromedriver`
  is not able to detect that an arm64 CPU *is* a 64-bit CPU. After
  looking through the `chromedriver` repo, it appears that 87.0.1 is the
  first version that adds a proper check ([1]).

  Note that upgrading chromedriver caused the Chrome-specific tests to
  fail intermittently on CI. I was not able to 100% work out the reason
  for this, but ensuring that X (which provides a way for Chrome to run
  in a GUI setting from the command line) is available seems to fix
  these issues.

* The script also halts when attempting to run the install step for
  the `electron` package. This happens because for the version of
  `electron` we are using (9.4.2), there is no available binary for
  arm64. It appears that Electron 11.x was the first version to support
  arm64 Macs ([2]). This is a bit trickier to resolve because we don't
  explicitly rely on `electron` — that's brought in by `react-devtools`.
  The first version of `react-devtools` that relies on `electron` 11.x
  is 4.11.0 ([3]).
