Python 3.8 update

Description

I'm not entirely sure of the best way to go about this. Python 3.8 is currently available as python38-devel (alpha 2) but the Python 3.8 beta was recently released with an open call for testing.

I can probably update the portfile for this but I'm not sure whether the port should be renamed and drop the "devel" suffix.

FWIW I've started looking at this in a bit more detail and it looks like quite a lot has changed since the last alpha so that the patch files need a lot of work. Previously, I've managed to get away with just updating the metadata of the source files.

In particular, unless I'm completely overlooking something, setup.py has been significantly rewritten: the note about DEBUGGING has been removed; disabled_module_list has been capitalised, etc. Not really sure how to proceed with this.

Thanks for the update! I think -devel should be kept until the final stable release 3.8.0.
