#70954: Pandoc should not install texlive if MacTex is already installed

I recently reinstalled pandoc and discovered that pandoc installs texlive,
even when a full texlive installation as provided by Mactex
[https://www.tug.org/mactex/] is already present. This is especially
inconvenient since texlive as installed by Macports takes precedence over
MacTex, which disrupted my workflow. I found a nice workaround : uninstall
pandoc and texlive as provided by Macports and install pandoc as proposed
on [https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/releases].
Maybe I missed a variant in the pandoc ports which enables installing
pandoc without requiring texlive and relying on MacTex instead. If that is
not the case, it could a variant worth providing for any user who don't
wish to disrupt their workflow by installing Macports's texlive.
