Because there are a variety of scenarios where a build fails if the OS version 
and SDK version are not the same, I deliberately keep Xcode versions on the 
buildbot machines* on the last version that contains the SDK version that 
matches the OS version. If Xcode 12 contains the macOS 10.15 SDK, I can update 
the 10.15 worker to it, otherwise I would not want to do that.

I do have work in progress on a MacOSX.sdk port which should make it easier for 
ports to request any SDK on any OS. It is not committed yet.
