Merge #15802: doc: mention creating application support bitcoin folder on OSX
8dfbb5c doc: mention creating application support bitcoin folder on OSX (Jack Mallers) Pull request description: When setting up bitcoin core on my new MacBook via the [`macOS Build Instructions and Notes`](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/build-osx.md), running `touch "/Users/${USER}/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin/bitcoin.conf"` resulted in `No such file or directory` because my `/Users/${USER}/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin/` folder had not been created yet. This PR adds `mkdir "/Users/${USER}/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin"` to the documentation before creating the configuration file with `touch "/Users/${USER}/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin/bitcoin.conf"` ACKs for commit 8dfbb5: fanquake: utACK 8dfbb5c Tree-SHA512: c401dae0a681bed77b31939bd29f79837f66c8537da393871fc3596e8c10629b8817ece9c8d49b1b9de34e74e0fbff742a9116b02ce7a71af93f872b87539337
