The PropertiesFile class always used to put its settings files in "Library/Preferences", but Apple
have changed their advice, and now stipulate that settings should go in "Library/Application Support".
Because older apps would be broken by a silent change in this class's behaviour, you must now
explicitly set the osxLibrarySubFolder value to indicate which path you want to use.
In newer apps, you should always set this to "Application Support" or
"Application Support/YourSubFolderName".
If your app needs to load settings files that were created by older versions of juce and
you want to maintain backwards-compatibility, then you can set this to "Preferences".
But.. for better Apple-compliance, the recommended approach would be to write some code that
finds your old settings files in ~/Library/Preferences, moves them to ~/Library/Application Support,
and then uses the new path.
