mail/php7[2-4]-imap: change client from cclient to panda-cclient
There are some reports about PHP crashes, when using php-imap (especially with OpenSSL and TSL 1.3). All this problems went away, when using the panda-cclient instead of the old cclient. Therefore we make the panda-cclient the new default, but still allow cclient in order to allow backwards compatibility. Special thanks to bofh for figuring out the complex details and the solution! Special thanks to Jason for being patience and helpful about so many months! Reported by: Jason de Cordoba <jason@aventia.pw> Reviewed by: bofh Sponsored by: Bounce Experts

+
+ The imap module of PHP was compiled against cclient till now. But this lib is
+ unmaintained for over 7 years. When combined with modern OpenSSL there are
+ various crashes reported.
+
+ Switching to the fork panda-cclient fixes these issues. Therefore we make the
+ usage of Panda cclient the new default. If you want to use the old cclient,
+ you need to enable it now!
