Cleanup plist

In some straightforward cases, protect documentation behind
PORTDOCS, adding a DOCS option where needed, and a couple
PORTEXAMPLES for good measure.

Use setuptools for all Python ports.

Setuptools is the preferred method to manage Python distributions after
many changes to the packaging ecosystem over the past couple of years.

Only ports using USE_PYDISTUTILS= yes are affected by this commit, ports using
USE_PYDISTUTILS= easy_install remains the same however this usage is now
deprecated and should be converted to USE_PYDISTUTILS= yes.

Some Python distributions do not work with setuptools out of the box because
they extend the install command from distutils and not setuptools, and
so they need to be patched accordingly.

pip (which leverages setuptools) works around the issue by using eggs, however
we want to get rid of those as well, as support for "flat" installation is
unavailable or has other issues associated with it.

This work allows us to unify how python packages are built, ensure that Python
distributions are installed consistently, reduces complexity for Python port
maintainers and paves the way for simplifying the Python ports framework in
the future.

- Update to 1.3

15:20 wjv 

- Housekeeping update :)   - Add runtime dependency on Tkinter   - Deploy
DOCSDIR   - Minor style updates in Makefile   - Update my email address   - Make
installation of examples dependent on NOPORTDOCS   - Bump PORTREVISION (because
of the last point above)

- Certain files were installed to incorrect locations, leading to serious    
breakage.   - Fixing the problem lead to a more general overhaul of the port.  
- Bumped PORTREVISION.    

17:15 jeh 

- Though not broken as such, the way in which port docs was handled in    
pkg-plist caused the docs not to be included if the port was built as a    
package.  The %%PORTDOCS%% PLIST_SUB pragma now allows an elegant way to     get
around this.   - Did bump PORTREVISION of this reason   - Fixed a typo.  :-)    

15:14 kevlo 

- Changed PLIST so that the port deinstalls cleanly even if it had been    
installed -DNOPORTDOCS.

Port cleanup.  Bumped PORTREVISION to 1
