The versions that we specify for macOS are way too old already. Let's
rephrase this without specific version numbers, pointing the users
to the latest version instead.

This is a stronger, or at least different, commitment than
docs/about/build-platforms.rst makes:

# The project aims to support the most recent major version at all
times. Support
# for the previous major version will be dropped 2 years after the new major
# version is released or when the vendor itself drops support, whichever comes
# first.

Ok, true, I'll try to rephrase it.
