Updated macOS minimum version to 11, matching Briefcase #2228

Updated documentation to list minimum macOS version as 11 (Big Sur) rather than 10.10 (Yosemite). Also cleaned up places where Cocoa classes were commented out or conditionally defined due to lack of availability in older OS versions.

As mentioned here, Briefcase supports a minimum of 11 (Big Sur), so the documentation is misleading and the avoided / conditional Cocoa definitions are unnecessary.

Since #2227 is nowhere near as simple as I'd first thought, I'm putting this in separately rather than wait for resolution on that.

...What category should this changenote be? Docs? It does change code, but doesn't actually fix a bug.

PR Checklist:

  • All new features have been tested
  • All new features have been documented
  • I have read the CONTRIBUTING.md file
  • I will abide by the code of conduct

Looks good; and bonus points for cleaning up the dead paths in appkit.py, not just updating the documentation.

Regarding the changenote - this is a removal. It's a backwards incompatible change that will (potentially) impact users; it gets phrased in terms of what was removed: "Support for macOS release prior to Big Sur (11) has been dropped."

Project-wide search sure is handy, isn't it? : )
