ports/68872: audio/libmikmod update to 3.2.0-beta2 ; audio/mikmod update to 3.2.2-beta1

[P.D. Seniura]

Hey - I did not authorize this PR to be closed!
I opened it for discussion!
I am the one who needs to discuss it!
The matter is not resolved!
It hasn't been answered in so long a time
and then _whoosh_ it is closed
without enough time for _me_ to look at it!!

Now open this PR back up please!!!!

Now for the discussion to be inserted into this
same PR:

We need to be able to use the current code
otherwise we will not have any way to test it.

Let's think about having a port named
 (lib)mikmod-current
like several other apps (mozilla, mozilla-devel).

We then need some way to have the depending apps
to know which one to use for linking etc. 
That means we need LIB_DEPENDS in the other apps
to be a variable mikmod.# where # is {0|1|2|3}
at the present.  Sort-of like a WANT_LIBMIKMOD=version
variable.

There are many apps that are hard-coded in this
manner, to the point that we cannot keep in sync
with the ports tree if we do not have a way to
WANT_* a certain version like this.

Do you see now why I must have this PR re-opened? 
I am needing to propose a way to do this WANT_*
stuff for libmikmod without patching everything that
depends on it.

Thank you for reopening this PR and allowing these
ideas to be discussed.
