port abandoned: unbound?

[Marius Schamschula]

I checked Jeremy’s GitHub profile, and found that he had not been active since last November.

Given that there were security related issues with unbound, I’ve gone ahead and updated unbound to 1.22.0.

As I personally use this port, I’ve also added it to my watch list.
