Update to 2.3.5

The attached patch updates x11-fonts/libXft from 2.3.4 to 2.3.5.

.tar.bz2 distribution files are no longer available on the mirror [1], hence switch to .tar.xz. Unfortunately the framework (ports/Mk/Uses/xorg-cat.mk) prevents the use of USES=tar:xz, therefore EXTRACT_SUFX has to be used.

While here pacify portfmt.

This update could help improving powerline [2] support in upcoming xterm releases.

Sorry, I failed to check bugzilla -- already committed independently as 09598f17e82edd6b5c5d1d9fe80f853427621ab3 earlier today.

2.3.5 cannot display text properly.
Examples of applications that cannot be displayed properly are
xclock -digital -render
Upstream, the correction is committed.

Comment 5 Thomas E. Dickey 2022-09-09 00:37:23 UTC 
I'll probably tag a 2.3.6 this weekend (unless someone reports another regression).
