 Well, I couldn't commit this patch with pure virtual
DoUpdateScrollbarVisibility() because this would instantly break the build
on non-Mac platforms which is not acceptable. But making it non-pure
virtual didn't make much sense so I've just moved the entire code in wxMac
for now and wxWindow::AlwaysShowScrollbars() now does nothing.

 I've also made a couple of other minor changes, reformatted the code to
use wx indentation/line lengths but didn't change the patch in any
important way, at least not intentionally -- but as I don't have the test
code for this I didn't actually test so it's possible that I did
change/break something unintentionally with my blind changes. Please let me
know if this is the case.

 Thanks,
