Some big changes in this update:
* Patchlevel 1439
* Default python is now 3.x instead of 2.x [1]
* Expose DEFAULT_VIMRC option (on by default) to vim-tiny
Also, many changes to the default vimrc. Any changes necessarily risk
contention, but then I remembered that I actually maintain editors/vim,
so here we are. The idea here is that Vim, by default, behaves like Vi,
and people who install the Vim port do so because they DON'T just want
Vi. I've enabled features that are basic quality-of-life settings for
me, and that I hope will be ideal for most end-users.
Important changes in the default vimrc:
* Don't install gvimrc at all. gvim should load $ETCDIR/vimrc anyway. I
can't test gvim locally, so someone please let me know if I broke it.
* Turn on autoindent
* Disable console bells entirely. Console bells are terrible.
* Enable incsearch: highlights search results as you type them
* ^L clears search highlights while redrawing the screen
* Assume fast terminal by default
* Explain every setting in comments
Many of these settings are modeled after the defaults in NeoVim, which
really got it right. I want our default vimrc to be usable and ideal,
so please let me know if anything doesn't work for you, or if you have
other settings you'd like to see changed in the default.
In particular, please let me know if I broke gvim by removing the gvimrc!

After discussion on freebsd-ports@, switch the default UI toolkit
from GTK2 to GTK3. There isn't a huge visual difference, so it's
more predicated on the idea that people are more likely to have
GTK3 already installed for other things.
Previously, we patched in the names of all the python binary versions, but
I have been doing a terrible job of keeping them up-to-date. Instead, just
tell vim's configure script the path to the binary we're using.
This will fix building against python 3.7.

Upstream used to distribute protocol headers as separate packages, but has
decided to merge those to a common package, named xorgproto. This update
tracks that change.
* Add a new port, x11/xorgproto, with are protocol headers for xorg.
* Hook the new protocol port to the build and to infrastructure in
bsd.xorg.mk.
* Update all ports with a dependency on any of the old *proto packages to
instead depend on xorgproto. Bump portrevision.
* Delete the old *proto packages, update MOVED.

actually any lighter---it's built with exactly the same feature-set as
the main vim port. The only difference is lack of gtk20 GUI, and the
language bindings are off by default.
An UPDATING entry is included.
By popular request, this is a slave port that installs only the vim binary. It has
no dependencies, produces a 1 MB package with a 3 MB installed footprint, and
is unable to do anything except edit files. It contains no help files, no runtime
files, no syntax highlighting, no filetype-specific indenting, non-US keymaps,
macros, or spell-checking.
vim-tiny is designed for minimal installs, and is the wrong choice for most users.
Due to vim's configure not behaving like it says it does, the --disable-nls
option doesn't actually disable NLS. It linked against libintl anyway.
It turns out that to ACTUALLY disable NLS, you need to set --enable-nls to
a nonsense value.

Vim's configure system is completely unable to handle our version-specific
lua library. This is a really ugly fix. If anybody has a more elegant
solution I'd be happy to replace this.
