Normalize `platform_system` to `sys_platform` (#9949)
## Summary
A revival of an old idea (#9344) that I have slightly more confidence in
now. I abandoned this idea because (1) it couldn't capture that, e.g.,
`platform_system == 'Windows' and sys_platform == 'foo'` (or some other
unknown value) are disjoint, and (2) I thought that Android returned
`"android"` for one of `sys_platform` or `platform_system`, which
would've made this logic incorrect.
However, it looks like Android... doesn't do that? And the values here
are almost always in a small, known set. So in the end, the tradeoffs
here actually seem pretty good.
Vis-a-vis our current solution, this can (e.g.) _simplify out_
expressions like `sys_platform == 'win32' or platform_system ==
'Windows'`.
