port lint should no longer recommend the patch-*.diff naming convention
The port lint
warning about patchfile names should be relaxed. We should no longer recommend/require patchfiles to be named "patch-*.diff". Instead, we should allow any "*.diff" or "*.patch" patchfile name. The lint warning was originally added to discourage users from adding patchfiles that had neither the .diff nor the .patch extension, since that resulted in incorrect syntax coloring in text editors that determine the filetype from the extension.
