Summary: stop using deprecated interfaces in OSX port

Initial Comment:
Evert publically stated we would fix it before 5.0 so I guess we should :)

Message:
That seems like a sensible decision. As Evert says, the documentation is
very poor/non existent, but I believe that the replacement functions are
only supported on the latest OSX versions and would cause problems for
older versions. I don't actually know what is the earliest version that
Allegro will compile for but I would say it needs to be 10.4 at least.

Message:
I've fixed a good deal of them. Right now there are still warnings about
CGDisplayBestModeForParametersAndRefreshRate, CGDisplaySwitchToMode,
CGDisplayCurrentMode and CGDisplayBestModeForParameters in osxgl.m.
Unfortunately Apple hasn't bothered to document the replacement functions
yet (the prototypes are visible in the header files though).
I suggest we leave them until Apple documents their new functions.
I also suggest that we don't delay 5.0 because of Apple slacking off. :P
