Review request for Phonon Backends and Harald Sitter.


Description
-------

On OS X, check bundle for VLC *before* checking system paths. Otherwise, if this phonon-vlc is running from a self-sufficient bundle, and the user has a vlc installed in system paths (/usr/local/ from homebrew, for example) this will ignore the bundle copy and access the system one.

This can often lead to crashes as the system copy might be built with a different compiler, link to duplicated libraries, etc.
