Since the identifier of the bundle is known at compile time, we have a
compile-time define that we use whenever we need to provide an NSBundle
in a situation like this:
https://github.com/omnigroup/OmniGroup/blob/master/Frameworks/OmniBase/OBUtilities.h#L64

Basically, we define OMNI_BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER in the Xcode project, use
the "Preprocess Info.plist" option to insert it into the
CFBundleIdentifier property, and use OMNI_BUNDLE whenever we need to
provide a "this-bundle"-relative NSBundle argument. OMNI_BUNDLE
essentially expands to [NSBundle bundleWithIdentifier:OMNI_BUNDLE].
