Update get_standard_cache_dir for macOS
On macOS the usual cache directory is ~/Library/Caches. This patch changes get_standard_cache_dir to use that instead of XDG. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-09-17 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * common/pathstuff.c (get_standard_cache_dir): Use ~/Library/Caches on macOS. * common/pathstuff.h (get_standard_cache_dir): Update comment. gdb/doc/ChangeLog 2018-09-17 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * gdb.texinfo (Index Files): Update for cache directory change on macOS.
