Auto update feature not implemented on macOS

[fthevenet]

Updating binjr directly from within the application (i.e. checking for a new version, downloading the payload, verifying payload signature, stopping the app and swapping the old version for a new one) unfortunately doesn't fully work on macOS, and therefore the feature had to be disabled (only warning a new version is available remains).
We were hopeful that we could get the script we use on Linux to work on macOS too (it does work on NetBSD, for what is worth) but ultimately, what seems to be an unfixed bug in the implementation of grep on macOS has pretty much doused those hopes.

I think you meant FreeBSD… Not that I know if it works or not on NetBSD ;-)

Yes you're right, of course. I got my BSDs mixed up...
