xorg-libs as a dependency

xorg-libs is a metaport for all the X11 libs. All the old XFree86
dependencies were changed to a port:xorg-libs dependency
simultaneously about 1-2 months ago. Nothing should really depend on
xorg-libs directly. ports should depend on the specific libs they
actually need.
To that end, I've gone through the tree and updated most ports that
were using xorg-libs to instead depend on the specific libs necessary.
These two have xorg-libs dependencies, but I can't see why:
swi-prolog
swi-prolog-devel
The following ports are still unchanged because they failed to compile:
arts
basiliskii
blt
elvis
mit-scheme
oleo
pgplot
pnetlib
tkman
vice
vtk
vtk5
wap11gui
xaos
xli
xrmap
These two are unchanged because I've been working on ppc. I'll fix
them when I get back to using an intel box.
kinput2-macim
mono
If you use any of the above ports, I suggest you fix them on your
own. They require a nontrivial amount of work to fix, so I gave up or
didn't bother.
