[OSX, docs] update some release build informations
- switching release builds to 10.7 - release binary looks like 64bit only - tested up to 10.10 - gitian builder builds against 10.7. The docs should be consistant. - remove 32bit text because nowadays it's obvious to support 64bit only on OSX.

In order to build a working toolchain, the following source packages are needed
from Apple: cctools, dyld, and ld64.
-Beware. This part is ugly. Very very very ugly. In the future, this should be
-broken out into a new repository and cleaned up. Additionally, the binaries
-only work when built as x86 and not x86_64. This is an especially nasty
-limitation because it must be linked with the toolchain's libLTO.so, meaning
-that the entire toolchain must be x86. Gitian x86_64 should not be used until
-this has been fixed, because it would mean that several native dependencies
-(openssl, libuuid, etc) would need to be built as x86 first.

These tools inject timestamps by default, which produce non-deterministic
binaries. The ZERO_AR_DATE environment variable is used to disable that.
