If `Separator tray` is used a page is printed to the Separator tray. This is consistent with the printer behavior when a native print dialog is used from a native Preview app to print a document on macOS.

The `OutputBinAttributePrintDialogTest` is updated for the native dialog to have the `Skip Test` button and description that if the native print dialog on MacOS does not contain `Finishing Options` then the test should be skipped.
