Summary: Porter's Handbook: Document valid chars for RC script
file names

This is a spinoff of bug 292378.
We need at least a sentence in the handbook which says which characters are
valid in a RC script file name. It seems that the unwritten convention is to
stick to shell variable names: a-z, A-Z, 0-9, _. Expllicitly not hypen-minus
(-) because it is not an allowed char in variable names, yet some ports still
use it making it inconsist with the *_enable variable.
