path to modify include_path

Hello,

the ports-tree provide a big number of php-scripts to use. mail/phpmailer,
www/dddbl, www/pear-twig and many many more.

PHP brings a configuration "include_path", which is used, when including files
in PHP code. It defaults to ".:/usr/local/share/pear". This means, that PHP
looks first in the current folder "." to include the file. If the file is not
there, it will look secondly into /usr/local/share/pear.

Many PHP libraries are installed to /usr/local/share. If a user wants to use
the installed libs from the ports-tree, he has to modify the include_path in
its scripts (every time).

This is a minor annoyance, which is changed by the provided patch. The patch
modify the php.ini files to add the /usr/local/share path to the include_path.
A default PHP installation will be able to use libs installed with pkg or
ports-tree by default.

The patch is just for PHP 5.6 because i don't know if you agree with my option.
If you agree, i will wrote the patch for the other PHP versions in the
ports-tree.

Greetings,
Torsten
