Situation

Several website pages on https://docs.npmjs.com, such as https://docs.npmjs.com/downloading-and-installing-node-js-and-npm

refer to the operating system "OS X" and "OSX".

The last version of OS X was OS X 10.11 (El Capitan), released on Sep 30, 2015.

Apple rebranded to macOS with the macOS 10.12 (Sierra) release on Sep 30, 2016.

Change

Rename "OS X" and "OSX" to "macOS".

Follows on from npm/cli#8371 which only changed the branding in the CLI v11 documentation content, such as https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v11/configuring-npm/install, not in non-CLI website content.
