Shar of new port "www/castor"

Castor is an actively developed graphical browser for text-based protocols
written in Rust that uses the GTK+ toolkit. It currently supports the Gemin=
i,
Gopher and Finger protocols.

Gemini is a modern take on creating a text-based protocol that lives up to
today's standards technically (e.g. it uses TLS). It aims to provide a "mid=
dle
ground" between the bare-bones Gopher and the bloated WWW but leaning towar=
ds
the former.

-----

The port builds and passes "synth test www/castor" without any findings.
Portlint is happy, too, except for the definition of DISTFILES. The latter =
is
necessary, however, since otherwise the main distfile gets discarded. Solut=
ion
proposed by kevans (thanks again!).
