remove dependency on cdrtools

emulators/virtualbox-ose depends on sysutils/cdrtools to install makeisofs.

We could replace this dependency with in-base makefs that is capable to make
ISO images but it is not needed too. Its configure script says:

# Check for mkisofs, needed to build the CDROM image containing the additio=
ns

In fact, VirtualBox build system does NOT use make use of makeisofs while
building for FreeBSD as it does not try to buid

https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/FreeBSD%20build%20instructions says in its
Prerequisites section:

mkisofs (required only for additions which aren't supported yet)
=3D> /usr/ports/sysutils/cdrtools=20

So, we need just drop this unneeded dependency. It was introduced over 6 ye=
ars
ago and was never really used:

https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/emulators/virtualbox-ose/Makefile?rev=
ision=3D274444&view=3Dmarkup

The patch fixing this is attached.
