Initial port version for math/nlopt

NLopt is a free/open-source library for nonlinear optimization,
providing a common interface for a number of different free optimization
outines available online as well as original implementations of various
other algorithms. WWW: http://ab-initio.mit.edu/nlopt/

-------------------------------------------------

There is a need for this port for math/R and some of its packages like lme4. 

Also, it could be of use for math/octave. In this first port version, support
for Octave will be enabled, if Octave was installed before. If wanted, this
could be realized by an option, with LIB_DEPENDS etc. I personally have no need
for this, because I am an math/R user ...

-------------------------------------------------

The port is tested on RedPorts,
https://redports.org/buildarchive/20140831093924-60450 and
https://redports.org/buildarchive/20140831101355-20744

I would like to take maintainership, if this is ok for others, thanks.


CC'ed b.f., because he is the maintainer of math/R.
