[MacPorts] InstallingMacPorts modified

[Eric Gallager]

I was under the impression that the recommendation to install X11 was just
a recommendation, and not actually a requirement... The section does not
actually say that installing X11 is a requirement to use MacPorts, it just
says that it is highly recommended for many MacPorts apps. Although I
suppose that could be clarified some...
