Here is an inital attempt at adding dist tuple support for
code.videolan.org.

I also have a port pending for librist.

Which uses `DIST_TUPLE=     videolan rist librist v0.2.20 .`

The dist-tuple.port.mk part is to deal with the tarball
provided by Gitlab as it adds a Git hash to the wrkdist
directory.

After:
