patch for net/chrony to be slave port friendly

Since chrony 4.0 upstream implemented NTS (Network Time Security) which allows
to authenticate NTP packets. This is definitely a good idea in todays internet
but also pulls in many (22) runtime dependencies:

* bash
* bash-completion
* ca_root_nss
* gettext-runtime
* glib
* gmp
* gnutls
* indexinfo
* libedit
* libffi
* libiconv
* libidn2
* libtasn1
* libunistring
* libxml2
* nettle
* p11-kit
* pcre
* python37
* readline
* tpm-emulator
* trousers

So I propose a net/chrony-lite port with all options off per default (except
USER) then chrony-lite only needs 1 runtime dependency which is libedit.
