Patch to fix problem described in bug description

In certain code paths Mail/SPF will fail to parse SPF records correctly due to
not importing/requiring Mail::SPF::Mech (which contains class methods required
in the parse process).

This is a fairly old problem, this bug report with a supposed fix by the author
also contained the patch I included here:

http://debian.2.n7.nabble.com/Bug-461709-usr-sbin-spamd-spf-lookup-failed-Can-t-locate-object-method-quot-new-quot-via-package-quo-td492057.html

I will also report upstream, but as this problem leads to skipping SPF
sometimes in mail/spampd (and probably SpamAssassin in general) I felt that
pulling this into the ports tree now makes a lot of sense.

Symptom:
Aug 14 13:06:40 mail spampd[66621]: spf: lookup failed: Can't locate object
method "qualifier_pattern" via package "Mail::SPF::Mech" at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/Mail/SPF/Record.pm line 213.
