Bug 239662: [exp-run] print/harfbuzz drop cairo depenacency
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=239662



--- Description ---
Harfbuzz has the hbview utilitiy. This utility it the sole user of cairo, which
pulls in a number of X libraries. This is undesired, for example the
ImageMagick nox11 ports. Optionfy this utility with the default to off to don't
have this dependancy anymore.

My own mini poudriere build didn't show any problems, but just to be sure
nothing depends on it indirectly.
