Craig Leres f3786cd894 net-mgmt/arpwatch: Update to 3.0. Update MASTER_SITES. Add options
for DEBUG (build with debugging support), ETHERCODES (install
ethercodes.dat optionally), and ZEROPAD (zero pad displayed ethernet
addresses by default).

Take maintainership as per pi@ in the PR.

Notable changes since 2.1a15:

    - Add -Z (zero pad) and -C (compact) flags to arpwatch and
      arpsnmp to allow run time selection of zero padded or compact
      ethernet addresses in arp.dat.

    - Check for I/O errors when writing new arp.dat file.

    - Add a FreeBSD rc.d startup script.

    - Escape unprintable hostnames in arp.dat to avoid corruption.

    - Added the -x flag which is like -n but excludes cidrs. Code
      contributed by Roman Ivanov (awant13@gmail.com).

    - Incorporated other fixes and patches with a lot of help from
      Kurt Jaeger (pi@FreeBSD.org).

    - Speed up arp.dat parsing by increasing the size of the hash
      table.

    - Control watcher/watchee from the command line (-w/W flags).
