v13.12.0 proposal

2020-03-26, Version 13.12.0 (Current), @mylesborins

macOS package notarization and a change in builder configuration

The macOS binaries for this release, and future 13.x releases, are now being compiled on macOS 10.15 (Catalina) with Xcode 11 to support package notarization, a requirement for installing on .pkg files on macOS 10.15 and later. Previous builds of Node.js 13.x were compiled on macOS 10.11 (El Capitan) with Xcode 10. As binaries are still being compiled to support a minimum of macOS 10.10 (Yosemite) we do not anticipate this having a negative impact on Node.js 13.x users with older versions of macOS.
