For well-behaved ports which contain ready-to-go Makefile-based examples
that are idiomatic with the rest of the KOS examples, EXAMPLES_SYMLINK
may be set to 1 within the Makefile of a kos-port to add a symlink to
the port's example directory to KOS's example directory, so that it's
more easily discoverable and can be found with the rest of the KOS
examples.

1) Added EXAMPLES_SYMLINK = 1, so that a symlink will be created to add
   SH4ZAM's example directory to the main KOS example directory.
2) Fixed formatting and added newlines to pkg-descr.

Hmm, I wonder how this would work on outdated operating systems like Windows, AFAIK symlinks don't work there.
