pycompat: adding Linux detection and fixing Mac Python 3 recommends detecting OSs with the prefix of the platform, but we were comparing the full string for macOS. We also didn't have Linux detection, which is convenient for extensions to use (rather than have some OSs detected by hg and some by the extension).

If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to

https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges#Submission_checklist

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
