Add the macOS full-drive test helper to the Bash scripts section, and note that it resolves f3write/f3read itself instead of assuming they sit next to the script.

While this is open, a correction to something I wrote in #284. In that thread I reported that the USB serial number prefix What did hold across all five drives was the reported media name and the reported capacity in bytes — the two working groups differed on both, consistently. That is the part worth keeping. Apologies for the noise; the script itself is unaffected, since none of this was ever encoded in it. |

Follow-up to #284, as requested: the script was merged without a README entry.
This adds
scripts/f3-drive-test-macos.shto the Bash scripts section, in the sameform as the existing entries, and notes what makes it different from them:
and partitions;
physical drive, the volume, and the port match up in the log;
a read under sustained I/O, which is what the script was originally written to
investigate;
it looks in
PATHfirst and falls back tobuild/— so the closing sentenceof that section now carries an exception.
Documentation only; no code changes.
