Make again BSD ar(1) the default system ar(1), now properly handling

Description

Make again BSD ar(1) the default system ar(1), now properly handling
source upgrades by falling back to GNU ar(1) as necessary. Option
WITH_BSDAR is gone. Option _WITH_GNUAR to aid in upgrades is *not*
supposed to be set by the user.

Stop bootstrapping BSD ar(1) on the next FreeBSD_version bump, as
there are no known bugs in it. Bump
FreeBSD_version to anticipate
this and to flag the switch to BSD ar(1), should it be needed for
something.
