Introduce the new BINARY_ALIAS variable
When defined it will create symlinks of some given binaries in a directory which will be prepended to the PATH. The syntax is the following: BINARY_ALIAS= target1=source1 target2=source2 For example to have a "swig" binary in the path which will be pointing at swig3.0 and a "sed" pointing at GNU sed: gsed BINARY_ALIAS= swig=swig3.0 sed=gsed Reviewed by: swills, adamw, mat Approved by: swills (portmgr) Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D12603
