patch file

Current COPYRIGHT file describes as following.

* Copyright of the FreeBSD Ports Collection is held by The FreeBSD Project.
* The FreeBSD Ports Collection is distributed under the 2 clause BSD license.

But there are at least 2 exceptions that does not match above.

1. Files that explicitly claim their copyright holder and/or license terms in
them.
2. Patches obtained from upstream.

So I update COPYRIGHT to make it fit to real status.
