Summary

ports/223111 suggests including xf86-video-vmware in the xorg port.

I think a reasonable compromise is adding it by default to x11-drivers/xorg-drivers.

We could do a flavour, but I think that's massive overkill in a meta-port.

This isn't necessary to make X run in vmware, so including it in xorg-drivers is overkill.
