Remove pending builds from buildbot?

[Jason Liu]

Neither the revision nor the version numbers were changed in the Portfile
(in fact, no changes were made to the Portfile at all), only the new file
got added to the files/ folder. But builds got queued up on the buildbot
anyway after the PR got merged.

Adding the file to the port (PR #12976
<https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/12976>) was only in
preparation for the PR that actually includes bugfixes (PR #13266
<https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/13266>), which obviously
will change what is installed, and do indeed need builds to be rerun. I'm
trying to get the queued builds for PR #12976 removed from the builders.
