SBFS support for macFUSE 4.x

SBFS is a command-line tool which enables interaction with BioData Catalyst project files that are mounted as a local file system. In order to use SBFS, it is necessary to have the FUSE component installed. While FUSE is a part of the Linux kernel, on macOS it is necessary to install FUSE for macOS (which is now called macFUSE) and we are now adding support for macFUSE version 4.x (macFUSE 4.0.0 was released in October 2020, and that is when the name was changed from “FUSE for macOS” to “macFUSE”, while its latest version is macFUSE 4.2.4). Please note that SBFS is available as a BETA tool. Also, it’s not available for the Windows operating system, but only for Linux and macOS.
