Alexey Dokuchaev e7f7a03278 Add a new port of net/nanomsg, a ZeroMQ-like socket library in pure C.
Currently the port does not install manual pages, as they have to be
generated.  Probably prerequisites for manpages are not as massive as
for HTML docs, but they are not decoupled correctly in the configure
and Makefile.in files.

While here, remove trailing whitespace in `net/Makefile'.

nanomsg is a socket library that provides several common communication
patterns. It aims to make the networking layer fast, scalable, and easy
to use. Implemented in C, it works on a wide range of operating systems
with no further dependencies.
The communication patterns, also called "scalability protocols", are basic
blocks for building distributed systems. By combining them you can create
a vast array of distributed applications. The following scalability
protocols are currently available:
* PAIR -- simple one-to-one communication
* BUS -- simple many-to-many communication
* REQREP -- allows to build clusters of stateless services to process
user requests
* PUBSUB -- distributes messages to large sets of interested subscribers
* PIPELINE -- aggregates messages from multiple sources and load balances
them among many destinations
* SURVEY -- allows to query state of multiple applications in single go
