editors/nvi-devel: Deprecate in favor of editors/nvi2

nvi-devel is based on a 2015 tarchive with several port patches
while nvi2 is an active project with over 600 commits since 2011
(including a pull request I submitted just today) that currently
has no port patches.

Please let me know if nvi-devel does anything that nvi2 does not
and I will attempt to rectify.

For those of us who prefer vi over vim there are no good options

Unlike the base vi (nvi 2.1.3), nvi-devel calls flock() on a writable
file descriptor. This has the unfortunately side effect of causing
the "Text file busy" error when you edit a script in one window and
try to run it in another.

The fix is to change the initial open() just prior to calling
file_lock() in file_init() to use O_RDONLY instead of O_RDWR. This
does not impact nvi's ability to write files, nvi creates a new
file when writing.

Berkeley DB cleanup, remove versions 4.0 ... 4.7.
- Mk/bsd.database.mk rewrite, new default to db5.
- db6 is eligible by default only if installed on the system.
- Bump PORTREVISION of all ports that directly depend on BerkeleyDB or
  where USE_BDB is found in the port's directory
- Patch a few ports such that they will pick up or work with newer
  versions.
- Add UPDATING entry
- Drive-by format fix for pks
- Drop BerkeleyDB option from mail/popular for now, requires more work.
- Exp-run logs linked from the PR below.
- Ports that do not build (IGNORE, BROKEN, etc.) have pro-forma changes
  for new Berkeley DB, but are untested.

NOTE: please read UPDATING and the Wiki page before proceeding!

Revision:351936Original commit files touched by this commit

When linking a library libA with a library libB using libtool, if libB.la
exists, libtool will add all libraries libB.la refers to (dependency_libs
field) to the linker command line and store them in the dependency_libs
field of libA.la.  So everything that subsequently links with libA will also
link to these extra libraries.  This causes too much overlinking.

This commit modifies Mk/Uses/libtool.mk so it empties the dependency_libs
field in .la libraries during staging.  However, because .la libraries have
very limited use when dependency_libs is empty it makes sense to completely
remove them during staging.

So with this commit USES=libtool is modified to remove .la libraries and a
new form (USES=libtool:keepla) is introduced in case they need to be kept
(dependency_libs is still emptied).
