Tail macos stdin ran from script fix (#7844)

* fixes #7763

- introduce macOS-specific config guard
- added test for testing tail stdin when redirected (`>`) from file and
  when through a pipe (`|`)

* created test to mock behavior in #7763, with comments

added drop line

* re-enabled test_stdin_redirect_dir_when_target_os_is_macos, and added a check to handle error message

* added location of current directory so test env can find script

* adjusting to try to have FreeBSD find the file in CI test

* putting in /env instead of assuming bash

* removed ignore macro

* added comments explaining the need for specific macOS cases, including reference to rust-lang issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/95239
