Summary: test for jack-availability

Initial Comment:
when jack is linked using "weak linking" (the default on OSX), it is possible to run Pd even though jack is not installed (that's the point of weak linking)
however, in this case, the application has to check itself whether the weak-linked library is available or not.

the attached patch this this (by checking whether the function pointer to "jack_client_new" is NULL or not)
