iOS 14 simulator builds fail due to typo in system macro

Product:Simulator Product Version:14.0
Classification:Incorrect/Unexpected Behavior Reproducible:Yes
 
Please describe the issue:

The CTL_HW_NAMES struct array macro defined in sysctl.h for the iOS 14.0 simulator has a typo-- there is no comma separating the third-to-last and second-to-last structs in the array.  This leads to any code referencing CTL_HW_NAMES failing to build for the simulator.


Please list the steps you took to reproduce the issue:

In an iOS project objective c file, `#import <sys/sysctl.h>`.  Then try to reference the macro in some line of code, such as `struct ctlname ctlnames[] = CTL_HW_NAMES;`.  Now try to build the project for the iOS 14 simulator.


What did you expect to happen?

I expected the project to build without errors.


What actually happened?

The project failed to build with these errors:

<source file>: error: expected '}'
            struct ctlname ctlnames[] = CTL_HW_NAMES;
                                        ^
