Major sysutils/automount 1.7.0 Update

Thanks to Rozhuk Ivan who reworked some of sysutils/automount code the new
1.7.0 version is now ready and available.

The changelog is pretty impressive this time:

    New options available in automount.conf config file.
    Filesystem detection/mounting reworked totally with file(1)/dd(1)/fstyp(8)
as backends.
    Notifications are now possible with libnitify(8) library.
    Automatic detection of DISPLAY variable.
    New automatic wait for device appearance.
    New detection if device is a block device.
    Introduction of CD-ROM support.
    Automatic detection of File Manager with exo-open(1).
    Option REMOVEDIRS is deprecated now.
    Handle ‘-o large’ option for FAT under FreeBSD 11.x and 12.x versions.

As its not yet available in the FreeBSD Ports please use manual procedure.

Download and unpack the automount-1.7.0.tar.gz file from:
https://github.com/vermaden/automount

Then copy its files to appropriate places as shown below.

# cp automount.conf      /usr/local/etc/automount.conf
# cp automount_devd.conf /usr/local/etc/devd/automount_devd.conf
# cp automount           /usr/local/sbin/automount
# chmod +x               /usr/local/sbin/automount
# /etc/rc.d/devd restart
