keychain_mac: fix build on < 10.9

[barracuda156]

errSecUserCanceled is available on 10.9+: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/security/errsecusercanceled

Hi, thanks for the report and the fix! I'll have to look into testing it, because GitHub Actions doesn't offer such old versions of macOS. And apparently I need to fix GH Actions anyway.

One question though: you commented on #33 that a fallback would be nice, but are you sure the problem is related to the change from that PR? The problematic errSecUserCanceled was already used before that.

@hrantzsch At the moment I can only say that 1.2.1 built for me, but 1.3.0 did not. To find out which commit introduced the issue, I would need either to bisect or go through history. (So no, I am not sure whether that specific PR introduced the problem.)

[hrantzsch]

That's alright, I'll figure that out if I can find some old version of macOS somewhere.

[hrantzsch]

I looked into this for a while but unfortunately I did not find a way to get my hands on an installation of OS X 10.8 (virtual or otherwise). Without any chance to test it, I don't think I can support this old version.

The change in this PR is simple enough, but given that the enum value in question has already been used in Keychain since the very beginning, I'm not convinced that this is the what introduced the issue for you.

Do you have any suggestions how I could test this? Otherwise I don't know how to move forward with this.

@hrantzsch Could you say what was the issue with the older OS? I think UTM and some other virtualization software are free and support macOS back to 10.5. (I mean, if the problem was technical, it is likely solvable. I do realize that doing this requires a bit of time to have it set up.)

I tried 10.8 and got it to a point where it started the installation in a VM on a Linux host. But then it failed with "Can't download the additional components needed to install Mac OS X.". I found some suggestion in an Apple forum to set the system clock to an earlier date because apparently Apple let the certificates of the download servers expire, but that didn't help either.
There's no feedback what went wrong beyond that error message, or at least I didn't know where to find it.

I never used Linux myself, but 10.5 and 10.7, for example, are known to install in UTM: d99kris/nmail#153 (reply in thread)
And UTM is basically an interface to Qemu, so that should work with similar settings on Linux, I think.

I have 10.8 installed in Parallels, AFAIR, it did not require any downloads to be installed. Possibly, there are somewhat different install images available, something like “Retail install DVD” ones should be complete and installable offline.

@RJVB Maybe you could help us here a bit, I recall you also use Linux?

Yes, but I never installed OS X in a VM under Linux. IIRC I did run it off a clone of my internal boot disk via VirtualBox's raw disk access. I think several KDE devs who don't have/had access to Apple hardware run (or ran) Darwin under VirtualBox or equivalent and probably installed it from scratch.
