p5-html-lint: reformat, for consistency with other perl ports, don't
disable livecheck in subports.
Disabling livecheck in subport is desirable because when I run "port
livecheck maintainer:ryandesign" I don't want to get multiple results
for the same portfile. The php 1.1 portgroup automatically disables
livecheck in subports and this has worked well for me. I had hoped
that this technique might be adopted by the perl and python portgroup
at some point as well but until then it's being done manually in each
perl and python port.
While disabling livecheck in subports is the norm for python ports,
its definitely not for perl ports.  Currently only 10/1299 do so.

Rather than change all the perl ports one by one it seems to me that
if one wanted to change this behavior doing so in the perl5 PortGroup
would be the better move.

However, I just use

port livecheck maintainer:devans and not p5.\*


BTW, while updating perl ports I often use the command

port livecheck rdepof:p5.16-my-perl-port

to check if the dependents need updating first.

This doesn't work if livecheck is disabled for the subports and is not so easily worked around.
