Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#31048: build: Bump minimum supported macOS to 13.0

a0e089a build: Bump minimum supported macOS to 13.0 (Hennadii Stepanov)

Pull request description:

  Running Bitcoin Core on unsupported OSes may expose users to security issues.

  macOS Monterey 12 received its final security update ([12.7.6](https://support.apple.com/en-us/100100)) on July 2024. Apple classifies the hardware that can run macOS 12 at most as ["obsolete worldwide"](https://support.apple.com/en-us/102772).
