[issue7850] platform.system() should be "macosx" instead of "Darwin" on OSX

[Christian Clauss]

Christian Clauss added the comment:

assert sys.platform == platform.system().lower()

Should that always be True?  It is on Mac OS X but...

On iOS (Pythonista):
sys.platform ==> 'unknown'
platform.system() ==> 'Darwin'

https://docs.python.org/2/library/sys.html#sys.platform should be updated to provide the correct values for iOS and Android devices which now outnumber many of the other OSes listed.
