patch assuming dir is renamed

misc/brs currently builds with many warnings but segfaults at runtime (probably
a missing prototypes issue since that's what most of the warnings are).

A much more recent version (4.30 as opposed to 4.03) of this is widely
available on linux under the name bible-kjv, which also exists as an openbsd
port.

This patch updates to 4.30 and renames to bible-kjv; switches to using DEBIAN
as the upstream; includes the "randverse" program; and does some wordsmithing
on the description (it's all very well saying that the port includes libraries,
but it doesn't install them).

I did not change the maintainer field but feel free to assign it to me if the
existing maintainer times out or demurs.

Attached patch assumes the dir is already renamed from misc/brs to
misc/bible-kjv
 (note all the files/* are removed).
