Steps to reproduce

a) Download a nightly version, tested with https://artifacts.videolan.org/vlc/nightly-macos-arm64/20230118-0413/, it can be either 3.0.X too, https://artifacts.videolan.org/vlc-3.0/nightly-macos-arm64/20230118-0210/

b) Try to open it.

Expected Behaviour

The expected behaviour is to be similar to how Intel Binary where it says cannot be opened and later we can open by enabling from security page of system preference.
