WooHoo!

The discussion for this functionality sprung from me whining about a way
to make the ports tree more self-sufficient. the ports/Mk directory and
this seem to be moving us in this direction.

Hooks like these allow us to possibly avoid problems (and a
million PRs) regarding the "fetch -A" and "bsd.port.{pre,post}.mk"
changes.

Thanks Satoshi for the great work!
