>Description:
This patch adds:

- SEDI as an alias for REINPLACE_CMD,
- USE_SEDI as an alias for USE_REINPLACE, and
- SEDI_ARGS as an alias for REINPLACE_ARGS

to bsd.port.mk.

These have the advantage of brevity, reducing the number of
continuation lines needed.  It may be that they will be more easily
easily remembered, at least by those who know that "sed -i" is
(normally) being run (they are also reminiscent of the word "edit,"
which itself is not a good choice because of the existence of
/usr/bin/edit).
>How-To-Repeat:
      An example of a port in which continuation lines could be
avoided is ports/audio/wmtune.
