See description for details

Summary of changes:
- Upgraded version from 1.8 to 1.8.1
- Moved "base" directory from /usr/local/share to /usr/local
- Adjusted installation / deinstallation messages

Regarding the directory move:
Inherited from the previous versions of this port (before I was maintainer), it
stored the jar and configuration in /usr/local/share. Since then, I have
learned that /usr/local/share should be reserved for static files, making this
an unsuitable location to continue using. For this reason, I have decided to
move it to /usr/local/minecraft-server. If somebody thinks there is a more
suitable location I would be interested to know.

Also, if you uninstall the old version, and then install the new version, it
just leaves eula.txt in /usr/local/share/minecraft-server (expected behaviour).
However, if you upgrade over the old version, it doesn't remove any of the
files from /usr/local/share/minecraft-server.

I have added a note to the install message mentioning about having to re-accept
the EULA and mentioning that /usr/local/share/minecraft-server is now redundant
and can be deleted.
