macOS uses BSD sed which uses a different regex pattern to gnu sed, which is what the compiler expects. MacOS will now be using gsed where there's a complex regex pattern to maintain compatibility with other systems.

Changelog-None

We use some GNU sed features and it's easier to require gsed than fix
them all (and keep noticing when they break).  MacOS comes with gsed
already!

Some simple cases are left alone, but anything called from make uses $SED.
