Backport of #18900.

Supporting PowerPC/AltiVec on macOS is no longer necessary,
even if the Mac/G5 is still running having -faltivec or
replacing it with the new AltiVec flag -maltivec wouldn't
increase that much performance without raw SIMD.

note: the flag was enabled on non-intel platforms which
causes fatal build errors on macOS/arm64.
