editors/vim: help tags file is missing, so :help command fails



I noticed that the :help command in editors/vim doesn't work.
I compiled the exact same version number from an upstream git mirror
(tag v9.0.1598 in https://github.com/vim/vim.git) and after installing
(to a different prefix), the :help command worked.

It turned out that the file /usr/pkg/share/vim/vim90/doc/tags was
missing. When copying in the version from the hand-built version, the
pkgsrc version's :help worked again.

There was no PLIST mismatch, though...

Also, it can be updated to version 9.0.1899 at least (the github mirror
I used is likely behind).

Also, it is worth to mention that Vim's author, Bram Moolenaar, passed
away a few weeks ago. He will be missed, but the Vim project is going
on.

-Olaf.
