Build ant-1.10.6 from source

The port currently installs pre-built JARs and documentation, which is a tad
depressing -- FreeBSD ports ought to build open-sourced software from sourc=
e,
using binaries only when sources aren't available or in other exceptional
circumstances...

The proposed patch corrects this problem -- unfortunately common for the
Java-related ports -- and also upgrades the version from 1.10.5 to the
currently-latest 1.10.6.

It also enables the test-target.

What's still to do:
 * Some of tests fail, which needs scrupulous investigation;
 * Building of Javadocs throws errors because the optional 3rd-party JARs
aren't present -- [bug
63438](https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D63438) filed with t=
he
upstram. These errors are currently ignored.
 * The port's options should list all of the optional dependencies -- enabl=
ing
and disabling the extra features explicitly

These to-do items can be addressed incrementally -- I think, the port can be
upgraded as proposed already.
