The devel/tig-plain port in shar archive

Made attachment #173801 visible again.

The devel/tig-plain port (or with some other name, if needed) allows to install
devel/tig port without runtime dependencies. This may fix runtime dependency
issue(s) for people who prefer to install devel/git-subversion (or other
variant) instead of main devel/git port (with customized options, if needed).
The manual post-install of devel/git (or other variant) maybe needed, in case
of devel/tig-plain usage.

The proposal to remove devel/git from RUN_DEPENDS of main devel/tig port is
wrong, in my opinion, if build ports (e.g. devel/tig and devel/git) with
default/customized options, where there are no mentioned issues (as well as no
need to manually post-install devel/git in case of devel/tig build/install
first, which may be another created issue otherwise).
