Updated skywalking-eyes to address slow performance on Apple silicon machines

Mark Ferguson requested to merge update-skywalking-eyes-version into main

Updated to latest version of skywalking-eyes (0.4.0) to address slow performance on Apple silicon-based machines.

To ensure this plays nicely on Intel and Apple silicon-based Macs:

  • pull the branch
  • make init
  • brew reinstall pre-commit
  • make a test change to some code by removing the copyright info
  • git add .
  • git commit (time the license check stage)
  • git add . (due to license check adding the copyright back in)
  • git commit (time the license check stage)
  • abort the commit and restore the files if needed

On a Macbook Pro M1 I went from 25-30 seconds when running license-check to less than 2 seconds.
