patch for the new port

This is a port of https://github.com/desktop-app/tg_owt

net-im/telegram-desktop now uses the tg_owt library from
github.com/desktop-app/tg_owt (also created by the same developers).
This library was downloaded and compiled together with telegram-desktop in the
previous version. In this version, this library has its own sub-modules. Given
its complexity, I think that it would be better to create a separate port for
it.

This library is kind of different from other libraries telegram-desktop use.
Other libraries are mostly configured as sub-modules of the git repo, and
they're included in the -full.tar.gz source tarball. tg_owt is different:
telegram-desktop's own build script seems to just grab the latest version and
build it.

tg_owt has no release, and no tag. Thus, the port version is using the date. In
the future, if it has named releases, we can use that.
