USE_GITHUB uses the correct API and reduces duplication in ports.

MASTER_SITES might be set to fetch the asset as well, though it would require
more work for the maintainer, e.g. rerolling the distfile if GitHub changes
timestamp of the asset for some reason, or changes the link to download assets,
or anything else.

USE_GITHUB ensures that this is automated and changed in one place
(bsd.sites.mk) for all ports. The handbook section is likely misleading and
should be updated.

It should use the API endpoint if the MASTER_SITES way gets committed.
