Fixes #30956.

We don't even document how download() decides what program to use, we want to default to a working download command if at all possible, and generally on macOS people don't expect that installing e.g. homebrew or anaconda will affect how "unrelated" programs like Julia work.

I'd go so far as to call this a bug fix.

Perhaps worth a mention in NEWS?

It should not be user-visible for people with working Julia installations, so that would argue against NEWS.

I guess we want the mac tests to run, but the mac ci is broken. Looks good.

We probably want a backport on this to 1.0 and 1.1.

I do not think this is backport appropriate.
