Bug description:  Mac install instructions fail

Description:
------------
Regarding https://pear.php.net/manual/en/installation.getting.php

Problems:
 * The Mac instructions start with "On Mac OS 10.4 and earlier", which is 
about 10 years old
 * Wget instructions are given then more reliable curl instructions are
given, 
it should just skip to the curl part
 * Please use https instead of http
 * See brew.sh for a great example of how to direct people to install
software

When running the script, the installer chooses poor defaults for Mac which

must be overriden (see http://jason.pureconcepts.net/2012/10/install-pear-
pecl-mac-os-x/). Perhaps these instructions can be added to the PEAR page.

Lastly, this website should be on GitHub so I can send a pull request and
fix 
the issue without bothering you, dear triager. Or if it is already on
GitHub, 
the page at https://pear.php.net/bugs/report.php?package=Documentation 
could be updated to tell me that.

Expected result:
----------------
Googling [pear install mac] lists the php.net page first because it is the
most 
accurate.
