NEW: graphics/chafa

Hi ports --

Attached is a new port, graphics/chafa. Chafa is a commandline utility
that converts images for terminal output.

---
pkg/DESCR:
Chafa allows you to view reasonable approximations of pictures and
animations in the comfort of your favorite terminal emulator.

Features:
* Supports most popular image formats, including animated GIFs.
* Combines Unicode symbols from multiple selectable ranges for optimal
output.
* Multiple color modes, including Truecolor, 256-color, 16-color and
simple FG/BG.
* RGB and DIN99d color spaces for improved color picking.
* Alpha transparency support in any color mode, including in animations.
* Suitable for terminal graphics, ANSI art composition and even black &
white print.
* Works with most modern and classic terminals and terminal emulators.
* Documented, stable C API.

Builds and all tests pass on amd64 and sparc64. Testing on a big endian
glass console would be appreciated.

OK?
