devel/py-backports.*: resolve conflicts with devel/py-backports devel/py-backports does basically nothing except to install the /usr/local/lib/python3.*/site-packages/backports/__init__.py file. Several other py-backports.* ports also installed the same file, with identical contents. That created runtime conflicts that prevented certain ports from being installed, including sysutils/py-salt. Fix the conflicts by patching the offending ports to stop installing that file, and instead depend on devel/py-backports.
