Description
The Config.isMacosLionOrBetter() method does not recognize macOS version string like 11.x and returns false.
Comments
I think the dependency is there because this fix is needed for JDK-8257858 to work correctly. This change is trivial and only fixes the version check: isMacosLionOrBetter() should check for >= 10.7, not for major == 10 and minor >= 7. That doesn't have any prerequisites and I can't see why we should delay it.

[~mdoerr], as there is a link between this item and JDK-8257858 (also backported to 11.0.12-oracle), could check if there is an interdependency and if possible push both together?

Fix Request (11u) Should get backported for parity with 11.0.12-oracle. Applies cleanly.

No new regression test. This can be proved by existing test sun/security/krb5/config/native/TestDynamicStore.java.
