macosx: Add explanatory strings for access to restricted resources

Those strings are read directly by the mac OS to show some reason
in ressource request dialogs.

The strings for NSAppleEventsUsageDescription, NSCameraUsageDescription
and NSMicrophoneUsageDescription are mandatory, otherwise the
application will crash.

InfoPlist.strings needs to be translated to show localized variants
of those strings.
