Update README and NEWS for ports directory removal.
This patch updates README to remove a mention of the ports directory. It also adds a NEWS item for the merge of ports into the main sysdeps tree (I think it's NEWS-worthy, although not strictly a user-visible feature). Other remaining ports references to resolve: a comment in manual/signal.texi (not giving a literal path, but maybe should change anyway); a comment in config.h.in (path should be updated); scripts/list-sources.sh (appears to date back to ports being a separate repository). * README: Do not mention ports directory.
