about folder naming (Re: Updates on Freetype Demos - Swift Support)

[suzuki toshiya]

I agree with Alex suggestion "do not touch mac/ folder, but add new folder,
like cocoa/". I'm afraid the lifetime of Cocoa might be shorter than GDI
(although Cocoa is younger than GDI), the naming like "mac/" for Cocoa is
not the best option.

P.S.
mac/cocoa/ might be acceptable, but slightly too complex.
