Log file or build failure

security/fprintd doesn't build anymore because of multiple warning, and after
checking upstream (thanks to diizzy) I found that they depend on systemd now,
and have no intention of supporting non-systemd OS's [1].

The current version in ports is v0.8.1 where upstream is at v1.94.2 which will
break even more [2].

Right now, in my opinion, it might as well be removed from ports.
This would also go for the following two ports:

security/libfprint
security/fprint_demo
