setup: drop legacy osx compiler tuning to enable universal builds
This was triggering deprecation warnings about migrating to `packaging.version`
from `distutils` Version classes with `make local`. But rather than migrate
that code, let's just get rid of some ~10-12 year old workarounds. As a bonus,
the cext libraries that are built are now universal binaries containing x86_64
and arm64 images (at least when built on macOS 11.4 with Xcode 12.5 and the
universal version of Python 3.9.13).
Several things to note here:
- Apple dropped support for 10.15 in Nov 2022, and OS X Lion that is
referenced is 10.7 (unsupported since late 2014)
- `xcode4` was basically always True because of the `>=` check (10.8 used
Xcode 5, and I have Xcode 10.2 on 10.14)
- `xcode51` was always False for modern-ish Xcode, because of the exact
version string matching
- Python 3.8 only supports OS X 10.9+; the Python 3.9.1+ universal installer
is macOS 11+ only, and Python 3.10 drops the x86_64 installer to deliver
only the universal installer.
All of this is to say, the only thing lost by dropping this code on modern Xcode
is that `os.environ['ARCHFLAGS'] = ''` is no longer set. But we probably
shouldn't be setting that anymore, as shown by the universal libraries now being
generated. I was able to `make local` and `python3 run-tests.py --local` with
python 3.9.9, Xcode 10.2, and macOS 10.14.6, and didn't incur any more than the
usual few test errors, so this should still work on some older versions of
macOS.

look for python scripts that do not use /usr/bin/env
$ testrepohg files 'set:grep(r"^#!.*?python") and not grep(r"^#!/usr/bi{1}n/env python") - **/*.t'

In tests, enforce $PYTHON and *not* /usr/bin/env python or similar:
$ testrepohg files 'set:grep(r"#!.*?python") and **/*.t' \
> -X tests/test-check-execute.t \
> -X tests/test-check-format.t \
> -X tests/test-check-module-imports.t \
> -X tests/test-check-pyflakes.t \
> -X tests/test-check-shbang.t

The above exclusions are because they're looking for files that
contain Python but don't end in .py - please avoid adding more.
look for shell scripts that do not use /bin/sh
$ testrepohg files 'set:grep(r"^#!.*/bi{1}n/sh") and not grep(r"^#!/bi{1}n/sh")'
