#55000: telnet port request (High Sierra)

 As Apple has removed telnet (and ftp, and rcp, rlogin, rsh... but not
 tftp) in High Sierra, it's now up to macports to provide such feature.

 Two possibilities (at least):
 - using telnet code from Apple in Sierra (opensourced and available), as
 did Homebrew: http://formulae.brew.sh/formula/telnet
 - using GNU inetutils package (also adds ftp/rsh/rlogin/tftp)
