Recent Docker for Mac releases[1] have a different path to the tty for
accessing the console of the xhyve vm, required for altering the
vm.max_map_count sysctl.

Update instructions on how to enter the xhyve vm for altering the
vm.max_map_count sysctl setting on Docker for Mac.

@lcawl This is related to a change in Docker for Mac, so since every user installing or upgrading Docker for Mac will be affected by this, it makes sense to backport as far back as possible. Wasn't sure which version labels to add though.

@dliappis In general I don't backport further than 5.6 these days

For the record the elasticsearch-ci build failed due to unfortunate timing with version bumps during the release of 6.5.1 yesterday. Since this is a docs change and the docs CI succeeded I will be merging this.
