This is a port of PortMIDI version 217, a computer library for real time input
and output of MIDI data.  It is using the sndio library for a portable
implementation, and this port is derived from Raphael Graf's
patches for a sndio backend on the OpenBSD audio/portmidi port, enhanced to
detect a variable number of MIDI (umidi) devices:

Although I have not been able to test this library directly besides successful
compilation on multiple FreeBSD 12.0 and 12.1 RELEASE systems, I have applied a
modified version of this port to work with audio/pd's in tree version of
PortMIDI (this is going to be submitted shortly, as well, though at present, it
does not depend on this port at present), and I have used that extensively with
numerous MIDI input devices (see below; input only tested so far, since I
haven't implemented MIDI output support in audio/pd yet).

As noted above, I've tested PortMIDI on FreeBSD with the following MIDI
devices:
*  Roger Linn LinnStrument
*  Hornberg Research hb1 breath controller
*  Keith McMillen Instruments SoftStep 2 foot controller
*  Keith McMillen Instruments QuNeo
*  Roland GR-55 Guitar Synthesizer (MIDI output only on foot pedal, USB MIDI
output requires a special driver)
*  Evolution U-Control UC-33e
*  Behringer FCB1010 Foot Controller
*  Yamaha PSR-280 keyboard

My apologies for sitting on this new port since July, I just haven't had enough
opportunity to test it until recently...
