maxima patch

I would like to adopt this port.

I also updated it to the most recent version.
Many other improvements are needed, but they will require some time and in the
meantime this patch provides an up-to-date working version of maxima for
whoever needs it.

Although many errors appear during the build, maxima works: I have tested it.
(The errors seem related to the documentation)

I completed the informations about licenses. I added a BSD3CLAUSE license that
should be verified: this is refered to the file
${WRKSRC}/LICENSES/getopts-license.txt. Its text is not exactly the BS3CLAUSE
license but it is very similar and equivalent. For example, this is the text of
the third clause of the file:

"3. Neither the name of the author nor the names of the contributors may be
used to endorse or promote products devired from this software without specific
prior written permission."

While the official BS3CLAUSE text is (source:
https://opensource.org/licenses/BSD-3-Clause )

"3. Neither the name of the copyright holder nor the names of its contributors
may be used to endorse or promote products derived from this software without
specific prior written permission."
