mod_wsgi: Add apache24 variant

[mndavidoff (Monte Davidoff)]

The mod_wsgi port builds and installs a module for use with the MacPorts Apache 2.2 port (apache2). This is a request to please add a variant to build and install the module for use with the MacPorts Apache 2.4 port (apache24-devel).

OS X Yosemite (10.10.1) ships with Apache 2.4.10, so in some sense, MacPorts is behind the shipping Apple OS.

We don't really want to add apache24 variants to anything. Instead, we want to take the contents of the apache24-devel port and use it to replace the apache2 port, then make the apache24-devel port obsolete.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

But since that's what I've been saying for years without doing anything about it, maybe that's unrealistic. Maybe we should instead move apache24-devel to apache24, start adding variants to ports, and then eventually retire the apache2 port.

Replying to ryandesign@…:

I like this better. I recently went through an exercise of converting a server from Apache 2.2 to 2.4, and there are some significant configuration changes in authorization (see ​http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/upgrading.html). This method gives people time to upgrade from Apache 2.2 to 2.4 on their own schedule.
