Defusing XML bombs and other exploits

The results of an attack on a vulnerable XML library can be fairly dramatic.
With just a few hundred Bytes of XML data an attacker can occupy several
Gigabytes of memory within seconds. An attacker can also keep CPUs busy for
a long time with a small to medium size request.  This library prevents
such issues.

  Affects: */py*

  Author: mat@FreeBSD.org

  Reason: 
    Ports using Python via USES=python are now flavored.  All the py3-* ports
    have been removed and folded into their py-* master ports.
  
    People using Poudriere 3.2+ and binary packages do not have to do anything.
  
    For other people, to build the Python 3.6 version of, for example,
    databases/py-gdbm, you need to run:
  
      # make FLAVOR=py36 install
  
  

Update to 0.5.0

- Add LICENSE_FILE
- Add NO_ARCH
- Allow concurrent installation (USE_PYTHON=concurrent)

Do not abuse INSTALL_MAN when installing documentation, examples, and
other miscellaneous files that are not actually manual pages (part 2).

Convert Python ports to FLAVORS.

  Ports using USE_PYTHON=distutils are now flavored.  They will
  automatically get flavors (py27, py34, py35, py36) depending on what
  versions they support.

  There is also a USE_PYTHON=flavors for ports that do not use distutils
  but need FLAVORS to be set.  A USE_PYTHON=noflavors can be set if
  using distutils but flavors are not wanted.

  A new USE_PYTHON=optsuffix that will add PYTHON_PKGNAMESUFFIX has been
  added to cope with Python ports that did not have the Python
  PKGNAMEPREFIX but are flavored.

  USES=python now also exports a PY_FLAVOR variable that contains the
