patch erlang-runtime23 to be able to build the wx driver

The WX application does not build its driver because in commit [1]
the OTP team introduced code that tries to checks for wx-widgets 2.8 compatibility. Unfortunately the check fails if wx version _is_ 2.8.

Build info is available at https://gitlab.com/swills/freebsd-ports/pipelines/165433039
Comment 2 Stefan Grundmann 2020-12-06 13:27:15 UTC 
the presence of lang/erlang-wx suggests that erlang@FreeBSD.org is no longer interested in maintaining the WX option in the various lang/erlang-runtime* packages.
