Subject: [PATCH] Fixed macOS bundling prefix serialization in
 osx/makebundle.sh by removing the forced trailing slash from
 BUNDLE_PREFIX_XML, so gtk-mac-bundler translation path rebasing no longer
 produces malformed .../ocale/... paths.

Updated the inline comments to document the exact failure mode and why a slashless <prefix> is required for this code path.
