Pkg doesn't care about conflict

The pkg-tooling right now does not support a repo with pre-built
pkg's for both PHP versions. So the default repo is 5.6 for now.

Right now it's not simple (or probably impossible) to say that a
port can depend on either php56 or php70. I think this is called
variants, and that feature is still @work for pkg.

Those that plan to migrate better setup a repo with 7.0, and
start testing for their applications.
