John Marino e576cffda4 Resurrect archivers/bzip and assign maintainer
This port was removed due not having a publically available distfile.
That has been fixed per the PR with maintainership assigned to submitter.

Additionally:

  * The patch-aa was renamed
  * The patch-ab and patch-ac touched the same file; they were combined
    and renamed
  * DragonFly support was added (hence the portrevision bump)
  * GPLv2 license was annotated
  * 80-column formatting was respected
  * PLIST sorted
