[devel/arduino18] Adding a new board description.

I'm trying to use devel/arduino18 with a non-standard board - which
requires installing a new board description.  According to the board
documentation, the process is to enter the URL for the new board
description in the Preferences, then go to Tools -> Board -> Boards
Manager to actually install the definitions.  My difficulty is that
the above option doesn't exist because the patches included with ports
r438914 delete all the relevant code.

I haven't found any discussion as to why the boards manager was removed
or what the alternatives are for installing new board descriptions.

Can anyone advise the process for adding new board descriptions?
