7130404: [macosx] "os.arch" value should be "x86_64" for compatibility with Apple JDK6

[Alan Bateman]

Jim - I see this changes lots of places to look for "OS X" in the value 
of the os.name property, up until now the check was to see if the 
os.name value starts with "Mac OS". Was this change necessary? I was 
following the discussion on the os.arch change but missed the discussion 
on os.name. I'm mostly curious to know if something was actually broken.

> Summary: On Mac OS X, align system property "os.arch" with Apple legacy JDKs.  Also, improve os.name string matching by using .contains() method instead of .startsWith(). This fix spans multiple repositories.
