            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".

            explicitly set the osxLibrarySubFolder value to indicate which path you want to use.

            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.
