Add new port: x11-wm/fvwm3

[zirias]

Summary

update x11-wm/fvwm2 to conflict with this new port on install.
While here, remove a patch that had no effect.

The patch in question did a 'cd' in a make recipe, which won't work, every line of a recipe is executed by its own shell. The resulting package is the same without the patch.

The patching for M4 is gone because fvwm3 doesn't include the module any more.

Things missing: GO support. This new port disables GO for now, because fetching using the go:modules facility doesn't work, I might look for help with it upstream later. So far, it doesn't matter much, the new GO module FvwmPrompt is just a replacement for FvwmCommand and FvwmConsole, which are still available.

Why add a new port instead of updating the existing one?

Why add a new port instead of updating the existing one?

• In fvwm3, the package is called fvwm3 (e.g. in ${LOCALBASE}/share), and a new versioning scheme is introduced, restarting at 1.0.0 (while fvwm2 was always 2.x)
• Maybe it makes sense to have both versions in parallel for some time, as fvwm3 is still "bleeding edge"
• At least a rename would be required anyways, as the current port resides in x11-wm/fvwm2 ;)

If you don't mind, I'll make the two minor corrections and commit it. Is that ok?

I think this should be aligned.

We try to use https where ever possible.

New port: x11-wm/fvwm3: New FVWM window manager

FVWM is an old window manager based on twm. After a long pause FVWM
development appears to have been restarted. This new FVWM no longer
supports M4 however it does support GO. Unfortunately fetching
go:modules doesn't work and is disabled at the moment. The maintainer
intends to work on this and upstream it when it's finally working.

Of course, sounds reasonable. I just copied the www url from fvwm2, didn't notice that detail. Thanks a lot!
