Bug 19646: Mac OS: wrong location for meek browser profile

On OSX, use the TOR_BROWSER_TOR_DATA_DIR environment variable value (if available) to determine the location of the meek browser profile. This fixes a problem where meek-client-torbrowser attempted to use a path under /Applications/TorBrowser-Data, to which regular users may not have write access. --- meek-client-torbrowser/linux.go | 7 ++++--- meek-client-torbrowser/mac.go | 17 +++++++++++------ meek-client-torbrowser/meek-client-torbrowser.go | 11 ++++++++--- meek-client-torbrowser/windows.go | 7 ++++--- 4 files changed, 27 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-)
