The resulting Mac wX .app build is now completely independent and
redistributable, only needs to be codesigned.
Necessary dylibs are bundled and linked in a POST_BUILD step using
third_party_libs_tool (included) for which I created a separate repo
here as well:
http://github.com/rkitover/mac-third-party-libs-tool
Turn off Cairo on Mac because it does not work for now.
Set RPATH on the executable to @loader_path/../Frameworks, the bundling
tool also does this.
Update .gitignore for Finder .DS_Store files.
TOOD:
* write a ./quickbuild for Mac and other platforms such as msys2 and
linux
Move closer to allowing an "out of the box" distributable build for Mac:
* fix the icon for the .app
* link SDL2 statically, a PR has been sent to the original repo here:
https://github.com/tcbrindle/sdl2-cmake-scripts/pull/9
* link SFML statically
TODO:
For a releasable build on OS X, system libs must be linked
dynamically while third party libs are linked statically or bundled. The
goal is to link them statically.
The two remaining libs that need static linking are PNG and wX.
For PNG a similar approach to the one used for SDL2 using pkg-config
should work fine and be simple to implement.
For wX things are more complicated. The default build of wX does not
include static libs, I will need to submit a PR for Homebrew to change
the default build to include both dynamic and static versions.

Also, by chance, added the build folder to `.gitignore` so as to not pollute the
git repo. I meant to do them as separate commits, but I forgot to do so.
