remove FPX from default options

Please remove FPX from default options for graphics/ImageMagick and
graphics/ImageMagick7.

1. FlashPix images are very rare noways. I was not able to found them on the
Internet except in ImageMagick test cases. In rare case when fpx support is
needed it is possible to rebuild ImageMagick from ports with this option
enabled.

2. libfpx contains multiple DoS vulnerabilities:

https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2017-12924
https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2017-12923
https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2017-12922
https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2017-12921
https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2017-12920
https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2017-12919

and it is unlikely that they will be fixed in near future, because libfxp is
not actively developed:
