Switch macOS CI from macos-latest to macos-14

[RtlZeroMemory]

Summary

• Switch macos / AppleClang / Debug runner from macos-latest to macos-14
• Add timeout-minutes: 15 as a safety net

Problem

macos-latest resolves to x86_64 macOS runners which have very limited availability on GitHub Actions. The AppleClang job frequently gets stuck in QUEUED status indefinitely, blocking PR merges since it's a required status check.

PR #103 had to be admin-merged because this job was stuck queued for 24+ hours while all other 14 checks passed.

Fix

macos-14 uses Apple Silicon (M1) runners which have significantly better availability and are faster. The 15-minute timeout ensures the job fails cleanly instead of hanging if availability issues recur.
