Remove misleading deprecation of old support directory

At least on Linux, if SuperCollider is compiled from source into the user's home directory via: cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME make install then Platform.systemAppSupportDir and Platform.resourceDir will be set to $HOME/share/SuperCollider This is due to CMakeLists.txt containing the definition of SC_DATA_DIR: elseif(UNIX) add_definitions(-DSC_DATA_DIR="${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/share/SuperCollider") endif() which is then consumed by common/SC_Filesystem_unix.cpp. Unfortunately, this resulting path is identical to the old location for the *user* support directory, so it triggers a misleading warning. However this deprecation was introduced by 2b77ef6 in August 2011, so it should be safe to remove it by now. Fixes supercollider#3367.
