rb-cocoa should not fail to instal if it can't write to /Library

[tim@…]

When macports is installed to my $HOME dir and I attempt to install rb-cocoa it fail to install. I do not need developer templates. I just need the library. Maybe make the +xcode variant for people that need it?

Installing there is also violating the standard MacPorts filesystem layout, so it should definitely be changed; of course Xcode probably won't see them if they're moved, so perhaps a message during post-activate pointing out the alternate location and that they should be symlinked or something?

I added a variant "xcode" as r48379.

• -xcode (default): install templates into ${prefix}/share/doc/rb-cocoa/project-templats/
• +xcode: install templates into /Library/Application Support/Developer/Shared/Xcode/
