Use sw_vers -productVersion to discover the macOS version #312

Description

@tas50

We're currently using an overly complex method of detecting the platform version:

platform_version=`sw_vers | awk '/^ProductVersion:/ { print $2 }' | cut -d. -f1,2`

At least on 10.15 this can be done without the need for awk. We should figure out if older versions of macOS include this flag:

platform_version=`sw_vers -productVersion | cut -d. -f1,2`
