docs(install): update homebrew-emacsmacport linking instructions
The current linking instruction no longer works after some breaking homebrew
changes. Update it to the latest instructions recommended by the maintainer
that basically functions the same as `ln -s`.

* docs/getting_started.org: Replace old linking command with separate
  instructions for Apple Silicon and Intel Macs.
