Strange, I had to go through the same process on my Windows system, Backup MC19 → Import MC20, and move files from the %APPDATA% folders.

All playlists should be included in a backup.

Remind me how this backup restore thing works, so I can get all my old playlists please?

Generally moving the files in the %APPDATA% folder (or the equivalent on OSX) manually is a bad idea.  In particular, you can end up with two Libraries that share a GUID, which confuses MC.

Backup and restore moves everything relevant.
