skia_canvas 0.5.2 fails on Big Sur, requires Monterey

[backspaces]

On my elderly iMac (late 2014) running Big Sur macOS 11 (November 19, 2020), skia_canvas 0.5.2 does not import correctly, creating the error below.

If indeed this is generally true that Monterey (osx 12 October 25, 2021) or later is required, this seems to limit skia_canvas to a smaller community.

Could we somehow widen the systems on which skia_canvas runs?

I'll look into changing the minimum macOS version required to Big Sur.
