math/kalk, current version in pkgsrc 0.5.4 release only 3 days ago has now changed name to kalker and has a new release, 1.0.0

How should we handle this name change in pkgsrc?

Remove the old package, add a new one, list the new one as 'successor'
in the CHANGES-* entry, and set SUPERSEDES in the new Makefile.

Also set PREV_PKGPATH.
