Background and Motivation
As per the header, all changes to src/libraries/System.Runtime/ref/System.Runtime.cs are subject to API review. This is a minimal change to class OperatingSystem to add checks for Mac Catalyst, directly copying the existing behaviour of IsTvOS() and IsTvOSVersionAtLeast
Roughly speaking, Mac Catalyst exposes the iOS API subset for use on macOS, allowing for source (but not binary) compatibility with iOS/iPad apps. A number of the default apps in recent macOS are actually Catalyst apps.

Right now, my main usage is in correctly gating which tests are run specifically against the correct platform, i.e.
+ [Fact, PlatformSpecific(TestPlatforms.MacCatalyst)]+ public static void TestIsOSPlatform_MacCatalyst() => TestIsOSPlatform("MacCatalyst", OperatingSystem.IsMacCatalyst);Alternative Designs
You could argue that adding one bool-return function per OS isn't very scalable, but that ship already sailed a long time ago I think.
