nginx: Update long description

Port: nginx

Description

The nginx port's long description has not been modified since the port was added in 2007. Some of it is now anachronistic or in other need of updates: 

long_description    \
    Nginx ("engine x") is a high-performance HTTP(S) server and reverse proxy, \
    as well as an IMAP/POP3 proxy server. Nginx was written by Igor Sysoev for \
    Rambler.ru, Russia's second-most visited website, where it has been running \
    in production for over two and a half years. Igor has released the source \
    code under a BSD-like license. Although still in beta, Nginx is known for \
    its stability, rich feature set, simple configuration, and low resource \
    consumption.
  • the reference to running in production for over 2.5 years is quite surpassed by now, and probably that entire sentence is unnecessary
  • the mention of the type of license is unnecessary, given the portfile's license field
  • nginx is not still in beta; the first stable version was released in 2011
