Re: Introduce wxwidgets 3.3 devel branch releases to ports

Hello,

3.3 branch means devel branch and upstream have released 3.3.0 and 3.3.1.
Repology shows that 2 or 3 linux distros are using 3.3 branch.
The only consumer for 3.3 is deskutils/treesheets.

I will continue my builds with 3.3.1 with cmake as recomended upstream and
soon I will open an PR so people can take a look.

One doubt that I have is should we use 'devel' or 3.3 when changing
Mk/bsd.wx.mk...

Other thing, I will need help on Mk/bsd.wx.mk because I have some
dificulties. With some help from AI I'm will use bellow diff for some tests:
