RFR(S): 8184022: Build JDK 10 on OSX 10.12 and above

[Erik Joelsson]

Hello,

I do not agree to removing that macro. I added those options to help 
guarantee that a build made on a newer version of macosx would still run 
on the oldest version currently supported. The macro is not mainly meant 
to be used in our code, but is picked up by system headers to cause an 
error if any features newer than 10.7 are used. It may be that we should 
bump it to a newer version of macosx in JDK 10, but certainly not to 10.12.

It seems to me that we instead need to ignore the particular warning for 
this case.

A source code search reveals no uses of MAC_OSX_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED other than in NSApplicationAWT.m and hotspot/src/os_cpu/bsd_x86/vm/os_bsd_x86.cpp. The latter won't be affected by this change, since it checks for a version > 10.5, which is always true in JDK10.
