Fix installation instructions for Mac OS X

The installation of `libxml-ruby` was broken because it was picking up the system version of the libxml2 library. By setting a `bundler` config item, it's possible to point it to the right place.

Also updated the instructions for `phantomjs`, which Homebrew has moved to a cask (and is now not officially supported), and added some of the extra command line tools that are used (`pngcrush`, `optipng`, etc...)

You will need to tell `bundler` that `libxml2` is installed in a Homebrew location. If it uses the system-installed one then you will get errors installing the `libxml-ruby` gem later on.
```
bundle config build.libxml-ruby --with-xml2-config=/usr/local/opt/libxml2/bin/xml2-config
```
If you want to run the tests, you need `phantomjs` as well:
```
brew tap homebrew/cask
brew cask install phantomjs
```
Note that OS X does not have a /home directory by default, so if you are using the GPX functions, you will need to change the directories specified in config/application.yml.
