patch to bump version to 1.4.0

New version of xf86-video-chips port is available via upstream.  In addition to
bug 235839, this is also a candidate for removal from the ports tree as it is
unclear to hardware usage in the wild coupled with the fact that it may not
build on xorg-server-1.20.

Release announcement via:
 https://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-announce/2019-February/002943.html

This is a bug fix release of Chips & Technologies DDX for X.Org X Server.
There was an X Server crash bug with the Version 1.3 and older code when the
code was converted for a newer vgaHW ABI.
This affects devices older than the HiQVideo generation.
This release fixes this particular issue.
Please note that the code may not compile against X Server 1.20 since it no
longer supports 24-bit color. [1]
