rP568810: Remove LLDB option to remove the dependency on python-2.7

Summary

The devel/llvm70 port is a direct or indirect dependency of a number of other ports.
It is marked as deprecated due to the dependency on Python-2.7.
Only the LLDB program built with this port by default does actually require on that obsolete Python version.
Removal of the LLDB option and thus the ability to build lldb-7.0 as part of this port allows to provide the essential functionality.
The old LLDB built by this port is obsolete, anyway. Its removal should therefore not cause any issues for users of this port.
If this change has been committed, a number of depending ports without direct dependency on Python-2.7 can be taken off the list of ports to be removed on 2021-06-23 (review D28665).

Test Plan

Build and test the updated port.
Build and test lang/ldc as one of the ports that depend on this port.

I did not fully check the file lists, but LGTM.

Should we mention that the debugger is not included in the pkg-descr? It's not something we'd normally do I think, but might be sensible here because it was provided in an earlier PORTREVISION?
