Patch to allow the fortune command to look for all fortunes in the fortune
directory by default

It's worth noting that copying the text-based fortune file isn't enough for
fortune to recognize it; a corresponding .dat file must be made with "strfile
myfortunes".

I've attached a patch based off of FreeBSD-CURRENT that should allow fortune to
look in all fortune files in the directory by default (should I submit this
patch as a new bug report? Contributing to FreeBSD doesn't seem to mention
whether or not a new report should be filed for patches if a bug report already
exists).
