Decrypt application encrypted binaries on macOS when SIP-enabled.

This works well and compiles for iOS nicely, if you want use it at iOS devices, you can use build-ios.sh (Thanks @dlevi309).

On Jailbreak iPhone with arm64 CPU

First you should connect jailbreak iPhone with USB.

> git clone https://github.com/paradiseduo/appdecrypt.git
> cd appdecrypt
> chmod +x build-iOS.sh
> ./build-iOS.sh
> scp -P 2222 global.xml [email protected]:/tmp
