diff -u that fixes the problem

Hi!  A few months ago, I found that bash was unfortunately installed on my
computer, when it used to not be.
Recently, I found the culprit is a bad default in the p11-kit options.  The
BASH option should be opt-in, not opt-out, as I have never needed bash.  If=
 I
wanted GNU software, I'd be using GNU/Linux, not FreeBSD.
The bash option is perhaps useful for people who use bash, and they can sti=
ll
opt into it after the application of this diff which fixes the problem.

Many packages require p11-kit, and they do not require bash.
I now have to do
pkg delete -f bash bash-completion
after updating my packages, as things currently are.  Very inconvenient.
