preparatory step to convert bsd.python.mk into a USES file.
- Remove the shared/static build separation, which is the source of many
problems and even more hacks. Instead build only the shared version, which
greatly simplifies the build.
- Use NLS_LIBS instead of NLS_LDFLAGS as done for lang/python27 (r357486)
- Remove the FPECTL option to align the build with the clean "template" from
lang/python34.
- Remove PORTDATA and EXAMPLES. Those will be made available via separate
ports.
- Add a new DEBUG option to enable debug builds as for lang/python34.
- Add a new TSC option for precise timestamp counter support as for
lang/python34.
- Reactivate curses/ncurses support.
- Use buildbottest in the regression-test: target.

Copy the second part of a change previously made to python27 [1], to
python31, python32 and python33.
This fixes staging and packaging of these ports by a non-root user by
running ranlib on the archive prior to it being installed read-only.
While I'm here:
- python27: Add breadcrumbs and references to the patch header
- python34: Update breadcrumbs and references to the patch header

Copy change committed to python27 [1] to python31, python32 and
python33 to fix builds of some extensions with Clang 3.4.
Also add breadcrumbs to the patch header in lang/python27 referencing
the upstream issue. [2]
The Python 3.4 port (lang/python34) already carries the patch.

A vulnerability was reported [1] in Python's socket module, due to a
boundary error within the sock_recvfrom_into() function, which could be
exploited to cause a buffer overflow.
This could be used to crash a Python application that uses the
socket.recvfrom_info() function or, possibly, execute arbitrary code
with the permissions of the user running vulnerable Python code.
This vulnerable function, socket.recvfrom_into(), was introduced in
Python 2.5. Earlier versions are not affected by this flaw. This is
fixed in upstream branches for version 2.7, 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3.

The current FreeBSD/ARM __clear_cache() implementation does nothing #if
__i386__ || __x86_64__ #else abort();
cognet@ advises this is an issue for anything !Apple that is using the
libcompiler_rt provided by Clang on ARM, and requires upstreaming.
This is the root cause of abort() on import for the ctypes module in
Python, as they bundle libffi. [1]
This change patches the bundled libffi library in all Python ports, even
though it is a NOOP for the ports that use devel/libffi. These ports,
currently python31, will get the fix via ports/184517
A huge shout out to cognet@ who helped diagnose the issue and created
the patch to address it. Thank you!

- mark lang/python26 and lang/python31 as deprecated (set them to
upstream EoL dates)

that was added after ports/131080. It was rejected upstream, because it's
not actually a bug, but misuse.

While here, let's use patch from upstream so it obviously conflicts on
