Patch to add a LIBB2 option

The pkg 2.1.0 now checks for required shared libraries and refuses to install a
package if some shared libraries are not present.

Building an archivers/libarchive package on a system with libb2 present will
use libb2, but not mark it as a port dependency. Attempting to install the
package on a machine without libb2 then fails.

The attached (trivial) patch adds a LIBB2 option to control building with or
without libb2 support, and to have the correct package dependencies.
