sysrc.subr patch obtained from
https://github.com/freebsd/poudriere/pull/708#issuecomment-526753174

Currently, with sysrc, if the file to be modified does not exist, an error
message is displayed.

In this case, there is no /etc/rc.conf:

    root at test:~ # sysrc hostname="test.example.com"
    awk: can't open file /etc/rc.conf
     source line number 1
    hostname:  -> test.example.com

The patch fixes this situation.
