This patch homogenizes to some extent the use of “Mac OS X” or “OS X” or “Mac 
OS” in the gcc/ folder to “macOS”, which is the modern way of writing it. It is 
not a global replacement though, and each use was audited.

- When referring to specific versions that used the “OS X” or “Mac OS” as their 
name, it was kept.
- All uses referring to powerpc*-apple-darwin* were kept as-is, because those 
versions all predate the change to “macOS”.
- I did not touch Ada or D
- I did not touch testsuite comments

Tested by building on x86_64-apple-darwin, and generating the docs.
OK to push?

I think this is useful for user (or configurer)-facing documentation and help 
strings.

Being picky, there is one change where the reference is to 10.9 and earlier 
which are all Mac OS X (but that’s in a code comment so no need to change it).

OK from the Darwin perspective (for the code changes),
please wait for any comments from Sandra on the documentation changes.

I can't claim any particular knowledge of macOS or its correct historical naming, so I'm happy to defer to experts on that. I did look over the patch and didn't spot anything that looked scary, at least.
