No new features mostly due to holidays and other things, but:
- TCP reassembly is now less strict about invalid TCP options
- REPL now handles the del[ete] key properly

ChangeLog: https://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net/e2fsprogs-release.html#1.46.6
Add patch to make m_offset reliable. Due to some race conditions on the
pipeline between FreeBSD's yes a, which emits 8190-long writes on
13-STABLE, and GNU dd (gdd), which it pipes its output into, gdd can
sometimes receive short reads occasionally, and because the count=
normally is the number of read(2) calls dispatched, this then leads to a
shorter reference "file system" that we crcsum, and that causes false
negative test results. gdd warns that iflag=fullblock would avoid
effects of short reads, but this warning is discarded in the test
script. Anyways, patch m_offset to use dd's and gdd's iflag=fullblock,
which causes (g)dd to call read(2) again until the block is full for
each nominal block, so we definitely read the desired output size 512 kB
no matter what shorter blocks might travel through the pipeline.

- Move `libarchive' from global USES list to SMB where it's pulled
explicitly; otherwise the program's happy with base system's one:
Found LibArchive: /usr/lib/libarchive.so (found version "3.5.1")
- Switch to GTK+2-based wxWidgets: it's noticeably faster and does
not pull heavy and useless (for this particular program) WebKit
- Augment the port description while here, particularly, remove no
longer relevant "alpha version" warning

Switch from Mk/bsd.ruby.mk to Mk/Uses/ruby.mk
Notable changes are.
- Mk/bsd.ruby.mk is moved to Mk/Uses/ruby.mk.
- USE_RUBY=yes is replaced with USES=ruby.
- USE_RUBY_EXTCONF is replaced with USES=ruby:extconf.
- USE_RUBY_RDOC is replaced with USES=ruby:rdoc.
- USE_RUBY_SETUP is replaces with USES=ruby:setup.
- RUBY_NO_BUILD_DEPENDS and RUBY_NO_RUN_DEPENDS are replaced with
USES=ruby:{build,none,run}.
- RUBY_REQUIRE isn't used anywhere, so removed.
- USES=gem now implies USES=ruby.
This is mainly the work of yasu@ at https://reviews.freebsd.org/D27863
I have just made some cosmetic changes and ran exp-run to test that the
tree is not in a BROKEN state.
