x11/gbsddialog: add new port
gbsddialog is an implementation of bsddialog, a text-based user interface to be
used in scripts and tools, such as in the official FreeBSD installer,
bsdinstall(8). gbsddialog uses Gtk+ dialogs and widgets instead of console-based
equivalents. The objective is to reproduce the same behaviour as the original
tool, respecting the exact command-line parameters and output. gbsddialog can
then be used as a drop-in replacement to bsddialog, effectively granting the
possibility to install and configure FreeBSD entirely in graphical mode.

In addition, an implementation of Xdialog is also provided, for use with
bsdconfig(8) when invoked in graphical mode with -S or -X.

{ type: install
message: <<EOM
This package also installs a desktop application file for bsdconfig(8),
FreeBSD's system configuration tool, for operation as a graphical
interface (starting with -X) as permitted with xdialog(1) as helper tool.
However, for proper operation this requires either running as the root user, or
sudo(8) to be installed and the user to be allowed in the sudoers(5) file.
