task: Include name of software in either port name or description

Description

The port for taskwarrior is named "task". The (short) description does not contain the term "taskwarrior" or even just "warrior". This makes the software virtually impossible to search for. I ended up finding it only by installing "vit", which I (correctly) hoped to have taskwarrior as a dependency.

It does seem like "taskwarrior" would be a better name for the port. I wonder what other distributions call it.
