ports-mgmt/synth: Upgrade version 1.22 => 1.30

This is an enhancement release that contains a bug fix.

Description of bug:
  If synth is launched from mountpoint of the ports directory
  (e.g. /usr/ports), it may malfunction with strange messages such
  as "invalid origins" and printing strange symbols to the screen
  along with parts of a directory.

  As a result, Synth now detects this launch location (as it already
  did with /usr/local) and refuses to run until the current directory
  is changed outside of the ports tree.

Enhancement 1:
  It is now possible to remove alternate profiles.  When more than
  one profile exists, a menu option "<" appears that provides the
  user with an opportunity to remove one to all inactive profiles
  from the configuration.  The man page has been updated as well.

Enhancement 2:
  Synth will automatically convert any directory inputs on the
  configure command to the true path.  For example, if somebody types
  in "/usr/xports" for the ports directory, but that's just a
  symbolic link to /vcs/freebsd-ports", the entry will automatically
  convert to its true resolved path (e.g. /vcs/freebsd-ports). This
  enables the cwd detection of the bug fix above to always work.
