Sam Lawrance a0156c5c5b Clean up Tomcat 4, 4.1, 5, and 5.5 ports.
These changes apply to all ports, unless mentioned otherwise:

- Move jakarta-tomcat55 to tomcat55 (it is no longer a Jakarta project). [6]
- Improve the tomcat55 rc script.  Fix PID handling.  Improve the
  shutdown process.  Use USE_RC_SUBR to its full potential. [2]
- Backport tomcat55 rc script to the other tomcat ports.  This allows
  us to pass command line arguments to the JVM.  Noted in UPDATING.
  [1], [3], [4]
- Change ownership of installed files.  All files are now installed
  with default uid/gid (root:wheel) except for those in the conf/, logs/,
  temp/ and work/ directories. [5]
- No longer install tomcatXXctl binary.  rc scripts are more flexible
  and can be reconfigured without recompiling.
- Remove AUTO_START and STOP_TIMEOUT (replaced with rc tomcatXX_stop_timeout).
- Remove a long list of sed expressions in favour of SUB_LIST.
- Move pkg_{,de}install to files/pkg_{,de}install.in.  Add them to
  SUB_FILES.  Tidy up substitutions and remove hardcoded values.
- Some nonfunctional tidying and removal of Makefile cruft.

Apache Tomcat is a web server written in 100% Pure Java.
Tomcat 5.x is the current release of Tomcat,
and builds upon the Tomcat 3.3 and Tomcat 4.1 codebases.
The 5.x releases implement the Servlet 2.4 and JSP 2.0 specifications.
Apache Tomcat 5.5 is the current focus of development.
While it supports the same Servlet and JSP Specification versions
as Apache Tomcat 5.0.x, there are significant changes in many areas
under the hood, resulting in improved performance, stability,
and total cost of ownership.
