Patch to allow installing the stunnel3 wrapper.

Stunnel includes a wrapper script called stunnel3 that emulates the command-line usage of the older stunnel 3.x.

That command-line usage is really useful for scripting and ad-hoc one-off uses.

The current ebuild goes out of its way to remove stunnel3 from the installed tree.

The attached patch allows stunnel3 to be installed.

ps.  I had to add USE=stunnel3 and optionally dep on dev-lang/perl because the wrapper is in perl.  The wrapper was probably originally dropped to avoid the dependency.  I'm okay with the dependency there as long as its off by default and contingent on a flag.  Hope this works for you.  I'm unwilling to make a hard dep on perl.

Oh, good call, I had not thought about introducing a perl dep.

Yes, a stunnel3 USE flag would work great, thanks!
