> Re-enable **release_multi_mappings** gtest on macOS
> 
> This test would occasionally fail on macOS, but thanks to Dan's catch, it turned out that it actually only fails on those test machines that run macOS 10.13.6 or earlier.
> 
> The proposed fix simply makes a single call to `os::reserve_memory()` with the `executable` flag `True`, and if that failed forces `executable`  to `False` later in the actual test code (alternatively we could have just also skipped that test portion completely, but this way we actually do something rather than nothing at all).
> 
> Tested manually on macOS 10.13.6 and via Mach5
