macOS: We use a compile flag (-mmacosx-version-min=10.14) to set the minimum required version of macOS needed to run our binaries. This adds a sanity check that the version is being set as expected.
Clangs Darwin driver should infer the SDK version used during compilation, and forward that through to the linker. Add a check that this has been done, and the expected SDK version is set. Should help prevent issues like #21771 in future.
Windows: We use linker flags (-Wl,–major/minor-subsystem-version) to set the minimum required version of Windows needed to run our binaries. This adds a sanity check that the version is being set as expected.
