Patches nslcd to use closefrom instead of close

nslcd tries to close all file descriptors on startup.  It does that by call=
ing
close() in a loop, running down from _SC_OPEN_MAX to 0.  Since _SC_OPEN_MAX
autoscales with available RAM, this can take more than a minute on large
servers.
The solution is to use closefrom.  Upstream has already made that change in=
 the
master branch, but due to its slow release cadence I suggest we apply the
change in the ports tree as well.
