[vlc-devel] [VLC 3.x 04/11] macosx: Remove private API for sort indicator images

[Marvin Scholz]

These "magic" strings are documented in the official documentation
and exist since a long long time, Apple can't ever change those
without breaking a number of apps, so using them seems better than
relying on private API.

(cherry picked from commit 91dde5a9f4d6bbd658590984243365e9e94c7fc5)
