emulators/virtualbox-ose*: Add support of "Unattended Installation of Guest OS" feature
Install files required by Unattended Installation of Guest OS feature.
These files were already prepared during the ports' build, so just add
them to the installation.

Details about this feature are here:

emulators/virtualbox-ose*-72: Update 7.2.4 => 7.2.6
Changelog:
https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Changelog-7.2#v6

emulators/virtualbox-ose{,-nox11}-72:
Remove the OGG, VORBIS, and VPX options - without libogg and libvorbis
in the system, the ports attempts to use the bundled versions, but
without libvpx, the build fails. Even when using libvpx, building the
bundled libvorbis library also fails.
These 3 libraries are not heavy dependencies, so we simply make them
mandatory even for emulators/virtualbox-ose-nox11-72.

emulators/virtualbox-ose{,-kmod,-nox11}-72: Add new ports VirtualBox 7.2.0
Port based on patch from Stas Timokhin <devel@stasyan.com>.
The main work on porting was done by the author of the original patch.
The rest is a several various improvements and bug fixes that have been
made over the past few months in older versions and one upstream
regression: https://github.com/VirtualBox/virtualbox/issues/135

The requirements for 7.2.x are the same as for 7.1.x, but for now we'll
leave both versions: 7.2.x in experimental/test mode and 7.1.x - stable.

Upstream ported on aarch64, but for now we keep ONLY_FOR_ARCHS=amd64.
If you interested in porting it on aarch64 - create PR with patch.

The following ports also need to be created (they are not available for
versions 7.0.x and 7.1.x either):
 - emulators/virtualbox-ose-additions-72;
 - emulators/virtualbox-ose-additions-nox11-72.

www/phpvirtualbox-72 already in ports.

Changelog:
https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Changelog-7.2

While here refresh patches.
