George V. Neville-Neil 941374fb46 Fixups from jgh@:
- Use standard USE_RC_SUBR (`set_rcvar` is deprecated`)
- Remove stale entry from plist
- Use OptionsNG, and not old options framework
- Use autotools tools, and don't call specifically as a build dependency (ie. libtool, automake), automake is required
- Add an additional MASTER_SITE
- remove extra new line from pkg-descr
- fix make install by using CONFIGURE_WRKSRC
- some portlint petting was necessary

A port of Apache's ZooKeeper software for FreeBSD.
ZooKeeper: A Distributed Coordination Service for Distributed Applications
ZooKeeper is a distributed, open-source coordination service for
distributed applications. It exposes a simple set of primitives that
distributed applications can build upon to implement higher level
services for synchronization, configuration maintenance, and groups
and naming. It is designed to be easy to program to, and uses a data
model styled after the familiar directory tree structure of file
systems. It runs in Java and has bindings for both Java and C.
Coordination services are notoriously hard to get right. They are
especially prone to errors such as race conditions and deadlock. The
motivation behind ZooKeeper is to relieve distributed applications the
responsibility of implementing coordination services from scratch.
