Patch for x11-wm/plasma6-kwin

The x11-wm/plasma6-kwin port assumes that x11/libei will be found in the build environment without explicitly depending on it. This library is normally pulled in via x11-servers/xwayland, but can be turned off there via an option.

The attached patch adds an EI option (mirroring the EI option in x11-servers/xwayland), making the dependency on x11/libei explicit and optional.
Comment 1 Max Brazhnikov freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2025-04-12 20:55:42 UTC 
Thanks for patch! Does this option need to be in sync between kwin and xwayland? If not, for the sake of simplicity I would make this dependency non-optional for kwin.
Comment 2 freebsd 2025-04-12 21:03:13 UTC 
I don't know, unfortunately. My entire system is built without x11/libei, because it pulls in too many additional dependencies that I didn't want.

Comment 4 Max Brazhnikov freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2025-04-12 22:18:33 UTC 
It seems this dependency is only needed for Wayland flavor of KWin, so let it be optional for now.
