6703731d6e phttpget: move out of portsnap
Currently, WITHOUT_PORTSNAP forces WITHOUT_FREEBSD_UPDATE because the
latter relies on phttpget, which lives inside the portsnap build bits.

Remove the dependency between these two options by moving phttpget out into
^/libexec and building/installing it if either WITH_PORTSNAP or
WITH_FREEBSD_UPDATE.

Future work could remove the conditional if it's decided that users will use
it independently of either the current in-base consumers.

6fb01948ee Add portsnap to the base system. This is a secure, easy to use,
fast, lightweight, and generally good way for users to keep their
ports trees up to date.

This is version 0.9.4 from the ports tree (sysutils/portsnap) with
the following changes:
1. The experimental pipelined http code is enabled.  No seatbelts
in -CURRENT. (^_^)
2. The working directory has moved from /usr/local/portsnap to
/var/db/portsnap (as discussed on -arch two days ago).
3. Portsnap now fetches a list of mirrors (distributed as DNS SRV
records) and selects one randomly.  This should help to avoid the
uneven loading which plagues the cvsup mirror network.
4. The license is now 2-clause BSD instead of 3-clause BSD.
5. Various incidental changes to make portsnap fit into the base
system's build mechanics.
