We were not setting the flag to select the GNUstep ABI, so were defaulting to
using the GCC-compatible version, which was likely to trigger a lot of subtle
bugs. This was noticed when C++ exceptions thrown through Objective-C stack
frames caused segfaults.
Update the default Objective-C compiler.
Fix various build failures in GNUstep ports from newer versions of the GNUstep
core libraries and from changes to GNUstep Make.
Update various ports that use GNUstep and bump the portrevision of the ones
that haven't had a new release.
Some ports were already installing in the System domain, for these just remove the Makefile lines explicitly specifying the install domain.
The rest are installed in the Local domain, remove any overrides, update their pkg-plists and any explicit paths in the Makefiles and then bump port revision.

Simplify gnustep ports
Hook into the regular ports framework:
- LIB_DEPENDS for library dependencies
- Use regular USE_LDCONFIG
Reuse USES=objc (automatic)
USE_GNUSTEP is now a macro to set the dependencies and build feature needed.
Accepted arguments: back base build gui
Merge deskutils/preferencepanes into deskutils/systempreferences
Update dependent packages with more recent releases.
Remove old and bit-rotted ones.
Switch to using clang 3.3 and libobjc2 1.7 by default, so modern Objective-C features work out of the box and remove a lot of configurable options for sub-optimal (and, often, unsupported / deprecated upstream) configurations.
Take maintainership of GNUstep-related ports.
Several of the ports left in have scary warnings which mean that they are likely broken in lots of cases. Future commits will fix them.

The affected ports are the ones with gettext as a run-dependency
according to ports/INDEX-7 (5007 of them) and the ones with USE_GETTEXT
in Makefile (29 of them).
