I've had two occasions now where I wanted bsd.pkg.subdir.mk recognize
custom targets and execute them in every pkg of a category, just like
build, install, ... do:
1. When I made a custom "hf-install" target (that did a "make install"
   unless there was a precompiled pkg available, which was pkg_add'ed
   then instead)
2. Now, running all benchmarks in that category by typing "make
   benchmark". 

I'd propose to solve this by adding a generic ${PKG_MISC_TARGETS} target
(targets) to the loop in bsd.pkg.subdir.mk, containing whatever additional
commands should be handled, see the patch to bsd.pkg.subdir.mk below.

A solution to the scenario #1 above would then be to add
"PKG_MISC_TARGETS+=hf-install" to /etc/mk.conf, for #2, something like
"PKG_MISC_TARGETS=benchmark" could be added to the
pkgsrc/benchmarks/Makefile, see patch below. 

Any objections to commit this? (If not, I'll probably do it on the
weekend).
