net-mgmt/rrdbot: switch to active fork

Since the original RRDBot project has been abandoned a long time ago,
the proposal is to switching to an active fork https://github.com/REANNZ/rrdbot
that has minor bug fixes and enhancements.

The REANNZ (Research and Education Advanced Network New Zealand) is a new
Zealand's National Research and Education Network. They fork net-mgmt/rrdbot
in 2015 and start doing changes and improvements in the existing source code
You can see the git history in the github repo[1] (159 commits), but I also kept
a full diff between the previous official version and the new repo version [2].

[1] https://github.com/REANNZ/rrdbot/commits/master
[2] https://people.freebsd.org/~rodrigo/rrdbot-0.9.7_switch_orig.diff

The new repo doesn't provide official release numbers, so we kept the latest
version
number completed by the packaging date in the dYYYYMMDD format.

RRDBot is an SNMP polling daemon which writes the polled values to an RRD
database. It can poll many different SNMP sources in an efficient manner.

It has no large external dependencies, and its configuration is stored in text
files. It has full support for MIB definition files and using textual MIBs
instead of numerical OIDs.

A nice feature is the querying of SNMP tables without using a specific index.
Indexes of the rows in an SNMP table may change from time to time, and are less
than ideal for long term tracking of a given value. For example RRDBot can
query the traffic on your router based on the 'xl0' interface name.

RRDBot also contains tools to simplify the creation of RRD files, and the
various archives contained in them.
