Deprecation patch

The FreeBSD port audio/shairport is no longer maintained. The URL in pkg-descr (https://github.com/albertz/shairport) states:

Airtunes emulator. official repo moved! now at <https://github.com/abrasive/shairport> https://github.com/abrasive/shairport

Looking at that URL states:

Airtunes emulator! Shairport is no longer maintained. http://www.mafipulation.org

I suggest to deprecate the port with a 3 month notice and point at a well maintained fork (audio/shairport-sync.)
