- Deprecate ports-mgmt/fbsdmon

From the PR:

"The web site used by this port, http://fbsdmon.org, has been taken
over by cybersquatters.  That means that users are sending their
system info to an unknown party.  The port has had no maintainer
for almost two years and the original maintainer (and previous owner
of the website) is not responding to email."

Since there's no way to force this port to be deinstalled from users'
machines, to stop data being sent to an unknown party, also do the
following:

- Modify the port to never send data to fbsdmon.org, bump PORTREVISION
- Mark the port IGNOREd for ports users, but allow package to be built
  and set extended 6 month EXPIRATION_DATE (or should it be extended
  to a year?) to give a modified package chance to replace original one
  on users machines
