Description

I don't believe I am seeing a package update breaking things completely...

squidguard 1.4_4 pkg v.1.9.9 introduces illegal directives into the squid 2.7.9 pkg v.4.3.4 config file. For some reason, on boot or after installing the package, squid still starts up - although a fatal error is logged. When changing the configuration the change never becomes active because some safety mechanism prevents the running squid from being stopped, to avoid it not running afterwards. After stopping it squid can no longer be started.

Both these packages are marked as "stable", the rest of squid/squidguard for pfsense is all "beta".
Together with problems in https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/4088 not being fixed that render squidguard useless by effectively bypassing it the "stable" status is best changed to "junk level". This is not pfsense quality :-(
Please test changes and pay attention to the log files before committing changes. ;-)

Patch attached.
