Summary: No menu entry background color, Mac Aqua

Initial Comment:
Setting background colors for menu entries in Aqua Tk
8.4.4 has
no effect.  Here's an example.

menubutton .b -text Tools
menu .b.m
.b.m add command -label stuff -background red
.b configure -menu .b.m
pack .b

The resulting menu has a white background on the Mac.
On Linux, Windows, SGI and HP Alpha the menu entry
background comes out red as requested.

Right now, the AquaTk port just uses the standard Mac OS X menu 
definition function.  So we only support the options that are 
supported by that MDEF.  Colored backgrounds is not one of these.

The classic Mac port has a custom MDEF, but it was buggy and 
hard to support.  We will need to redo this to re-enable these 
features.
