Add cscope to editors/vim

[chris@…]

Vim can drive a cscope database, allowing you to jump around as if you had a tags file, and also allowing you to do searches without ever leaving vim. It is really quite wonderful, and this simple patch to the Portfile will accomplish it:

The cscope that ships with OSX has --enable-cscope on by default, but macport's does not. Forcing users to figure out that macport's version has it off, but that there's a way to build a "variant" with it on is confusing, and most users will never figure it out. --enable-cscope is also turned on in every Linux distro I know.

I suggest you turn on --enable-cscope by default. It does not modify vim in any way other than allow cscope to work, it does not take up significant memory resources, and everyone else is doing it.

Cheers,
