Patch for the port.

The dovecot2 ports does not ship with a default config (bug #198792).

The dovecot2 port also brings the ability to run multiple instances of dovecot2
at once.

ports r378311 changed the behavior of the rc-script to only `run_rc_command`
for those config files listed in the rcvar that are actually present.

However, this leads to the following situation:
- User installs mail/dovecot2
- User / Automation tool runs `service dovecot <command>`, e.g. command=rcvar
- Script produces no output because `run_rc_command` is not run because no
config file exists.

While easily resolvable by first deploying the configuration and then running
`service...`, the script should still work.

I therefore propose the patch I attached to this report.
