[gimp-web] themes: update macOS third-party downloads section.

    themes: update macOS third-party downloads section.
    
    - Comment out "Fink". We were writing that GIMP 2.6.12 was the last
      version available there. I checked again, and it is still the case. We
      are not going to list forever a repository which is nearly 10 years
      outdated.
    - Move "Macports" and "Homebrew" into a "Third Party Downloads" section
      to clearly states these are not official builds.

+        Third party packages are not officially support by the GIMP

             Homebrew is similar to Macports and provides packages (aka formulas) to install, either by 
compiling them from source or by using pre-made binaries. There are indications that there is now a formula 
for GIMP, installable with: <code>brew tap homebrew/cask && brew install --cask gimp</code>.
