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outdated.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.

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>.
