lang/rust: Enable on FreeBSD/aarch64 + various fixes

This port now uses an unofficial bootstrap of Rust 1.17.0 and Cargo
0.18.0 for FreeBSD/aarch64. Here are my notes to create this boostrap:
https://gist.github.com/dumbbell/b587da50ef014078da9e732a4331ebad

The port's Makefile was changed to:

  • allow to override the versions and directories of the bootstrap archives;
  • patch the bootstrap script and manifest with those versions/directories.

Beside changes to support FreeBSD/aarch64, the port received the
following fixes:

  • Pass python path to the configure script.
  • Fix and simplify the extraction of rust-std bootstrap by re-using existing variables.
  • Make sure tar(1) doesn't produce sparse file entries when it recreates the rust-std bootstrap because Python 2's tarfile module doesn't support them (PR 219842).
