updates x11/xvt to version 3.0.2

New patch for x11/xvt which incorporates previous changes
and updates x11/xvt to version 3.0.2.

I have moved xvt to a public VCS to encourage public review
and participation. xvt, however old, is still a valuable terminal
emulator that I would consider a powerful alternative to xterm. It
has near feature parity, yet weighs in at 175th the size of Xterm!
Xterm weighs in at: 829024 bytes. Xvt weighs in at: 4736 bytes.
It's a great candidate for inclusion in projects like nanobsd. It is
also a great candidate for forensic software, where running in RAM
imposes restrictions that don't normally exist. It would also be a
good choice for other resource restricted environments. Or just as
a faster smaller alternative to Xterm.

Frankly; the decision to nuke this port feels more personal than
pragmatic. :(

Changes introduced in this patch:
Makefile (PORTVERSION, MAINTAINER, MASTER_SITES, WWW)
distinfo
removal of unnecessary clutter in files/
patch-src__command.c
patch-src__init.c
patch-src__screen.c
patch-src__xvt.h
patch-src_logging.c
and the addition of
README.xvt

Tested against releng/(13,14) && current
