x11/xvt [new port]

x11/xvt
xvt, simply continues on the original authors work -- John Bovey, University
of Kent at Canterbury. With few exceptions, it does everything Xterm does.
But also does a great deal more, with less overhead. This version will also
leverage vt(4), FreeBSD's new console driver. Which replaces syscons(4).

Please find the port in it's entirety, in the shar(1) file,
attached to this pr(1). As well as the requisite QA.

Thank you for all your time, and consideration.

x11/xvt -- requisite QA to accompany the port.

The only errors that are emitted, are completely harmless, and expected.
As to the 2 regarding XFCE*. Rather than cobbling a separate desktop
file for both GNOME, and XFCE. I simply combined the 2 in one. It
works perfectly as-is for both, without any errors at all.

The 2 SUID errors, are also fine. As it *is* necessary to install them
suid. I also performed the tests with elevated privileges.

Thank you for all your time, and consideration.
