linear_algebra PG: consider supporting alternative BLAS implementations

Description

We got quite a number of different BLAS now. Perhaps not all of them are meaningful candidates to consider, but some may.

At least these are not something totally obscure: https://ports.macports.org/port/flexiblas https://ports.macports.org/port/blis

Some other: https://ports.macports.org/port/blaspp (I am unable to make lapackpp build correctly though) https://ports.macports.org/port/psblas3 (updating it now, hopefully gonna fix it where it fails currently) https://ports.macports.org/port/AlphaSparse (this one is not well-supported by its upstream, it seems)

I noticed that quite a number of math ports may randomly pick flexiblas, unless BLAS implementation is explicitly specified. Perhaps, rather add it as a credible variant?
