[feature] Expose is_apple_os & to_apple_arch in conan.tools.apple

[SpaceIm]

• I've read the CONTRIBUTING guide.

is_apple_os is widely used in conan-center-index (almost 10% of recipes), it prevents their full migration to conan v2.

The usage of to_apple_arch is way lower than is_apple_os, but we have indeed assigned to 1.52 to take a look at it.

wish is_apple_os can be addressed differently than breaking those 10% 🤦

Hi @pgeler - we are making every effort to prevent breakages for both Conan and Conan Center users during the staggered transition to Conan 2. If you could kindly provide a report of issues caused by the the lack of is_apple_os in the conan.tools.apple, I'll make sure to address this swiftly.

@jcar87 it did break packages in 1.51.3 this one is an example conan-io/conan-center-index#12335, I was struggling around last night

Hi @pgeler - thank you. Apologies for the inconvenience, after noticing the issue with a small number of recipes we have moved to correct this - it should now work properly even on Conan 1.51.3. Please let us know if this is not the case.

#11915 merged, will be in 1.52
