  www/linux-widevine-cdm: new port, Google's Widevine CDM plugin (#844)

New port: `www/linux-widevine-cdm`, imported from FreeBSD.

`www/foreign-cdm` (#843) needs Google's Linux CDM library to proxy, and
its `pkg-message` points users at this port. Without it, foreign-cdm
ships a dangling `WidevineCdm/manifest.json` symlink and cannot play DRM
content.

The distfile is the Linux `google-chrome-stable` `.deb`, from which only
`WidevineCdm` is extracted. `CHROME_VERSION` is `152.0.7977.75-1`,
matching the `www/chromium` in #842.

### MidnightBSD changes versus FreeBSD's port

- `ports at MidnightBSD.org`
- `LICENSE=WIDEVINE` with `LICENSE_NAME`/`LICENSE_PERMS`/`LICENSE_FILE`,
since mports has no `Proprietary` license id. Permissions are unchanged
from FreeBSD's — `no-dist-sell no-pkg-sell no-dist-mirror no-pkg-mirror`
— and acceptance is deliberately left interactive rather than
`auto-accept`, so nobody silently agrees to a Google proprietary
licence. Build with `LICENSES_ACCEPTED=WIDEVINE` in batch contexts.
- mports staging semantics in `do-install`

### Testing (amd64, MidnightBSD 4.1)

`bmake build`, `bmake fake`, `bmake check-fake` and `bmake package` all
clean. `check-fake` reports no missing files.

portlint emits two warnings, both inherited from FreeBSD's port and both
false positives here: `USE_LDCONFIG` (the `.so` is a browser plugin, not
a linkable library) and the hyphen in `PORTNAME` (`PKGNAMEPREFIX=linux-`
is already in use).

### Not verified

DRM playback was not exercised — that needs foreign-cdm installed and a
browser session.

license and staged installation.
