Summary: two embedded prefs for Mac: default and override all

Initial Comment:
This patch creates two different kinds of embedded org.puredata.pd.plist prefs files on Mac OS X.  The first is the default settings that come with Pd-extended.app, the second is a prefs file that overrides all others, so that people can make their own custom apps based on the Pd.app, and be sure that the user's prefs aren't going to override things.

hmm, but how should the author of a custom app know about the
hardware-settings of the end-user?
wouldn't it be better to split the configuration files into
machine-dependencies (soundcard,...) and user-dependencies (libs,...) which
could then be overridden seperately?
