All library names listed by *.la files no longer need to be listed
in the PLIST, e.g., instead of:
lib/libfoo.a
lib/libfoo.la
lib/libfoo.so
lib/libfoo.so.0
lib/libfoo.so.0.1
one simply needs:
lib/libfoo.la
and bsd.pkg.mk will automatically ensure that the additional library
names are listed in the installed package +CONTENTS file.
Also make LIBTOOLIZE_PLIST default to "yes".

Minor improvements and bugfixes.
- Build all packages with a --disable-static libtool. This is how the
packages should be built and means that we don't get a load of useless
static libraries.
- Use x11/kde3/files/foo_main.cpp instead of creating N copies with
patches.
- Some other PLIST fixes
- Fix PR 19848. kspell doesn't find dictionaries.
