New description:

 I'm in the process of improving Blu-Ray playback support, ultimately in
 VLC but the main work is being done in libbluray and libaacs. I thought
 it'd be OK if not better to create a single enhancement ticket for this,
 attaching multiple diffs.

 The changes to port:libbdplus and port:libbluray have probably stabilised:

 `port:libbdplus`
  - add an explicit depspec for libaacs to avoid opportunistic dependencies
  - remove the obsolete --disable-examples configure argument
  - fix the livecheck regex

 `port:libbluray`
  - upgrade to 1.0.1 (not yet mentioned on the homepage!)
  - fix the livecheck regex
  - add ${prefix}/lib to the internal dlopen search path
  - remove obsolute --enable-udf option and enable building the example
 (the `bd_info` utility)
  - add a +bdjava variant which is required for supporting java-based menus
 in VLC

 The latter was a bit tricky: building the variant requires having a JDK
 installed (AFAIK only Oracle provides a working one for Mac). Just running
 would of course work with a JRE but there's a catch-22 there. The only JRE
 I know of (JavaAppletPlugin) is also provided by Oracle. I'd love to
 propose making +bdjava the default because why install this port if you're
 not interested in Blu-Ray playback. But that would require raising an
 error if that JavaAppletPlugin isn't installed (the build will fail out of
 itself if no JDK is installed).
