devel/libbfd: bring up-to-date wrt devel/binutils

Match the versions of libiberty and binutils. These come
from the same tarball upstream, so it's a bit odd to have
mismatched versions to start with; in addition the libiberty
version is years out-of-date.

Upgrade to binutils 2.15.

Revert from USE_LIBTOOL to binutil's own libtool, as libtool13 could
not grok the --without-pic option, and the configure script is not
prepared to handle libtool15 (yet) which in turn could have understood
--without-pic.  Sigh.  At least, that way we can avoid the overhead
of building all the unneeded shared libs.

Still, libtool insists on installing libbfd.la.  As this file is really
small, I give in, and added it to pkg-plist.

This is a port of GNU libbfd, the binary file descriptor library from
GNU binutils.  It can read/write about any object file format on earth.

Soon to be used by devel/avarice.

Requires devel/gnulibiberty, since it (alas) uses undocumented internal
functions from that library.
