EA2 macos build "damaged and can't be opened"

[Vladimir Kozlov]

I have the same v15.6.1 M1Pro macBook and it works for me.

% curl 
https://download.java.net/java/early_access/leyden/1/openjdk-26-leydenpremain+1_macos-aarch64_bin.tar.gz 
-o openjdk-26-leydenpremain+1_macos-aarch64_bin.tar.gz

% gunzip openjdk-26-leydenpremain+1_macos-aarch64_bin.tar.gz
% tar -xf openjdk-26-leydenpremain+1_macos-aarch64_bin.tar
% ./jdk-26.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java HelloWorld
Hellow World!
