Get notified when packages are built

A new feature has been added. FreshPorts already tracks package built by the FreeBSD project. This information is displayed on each port page. You can now get an email when FreshPorts notices a new package is available for something on one of your watch lists. However, you must opt into that. Click on Report Subscriptions on the right, and New Package Notification box, and click on Update.

Finally, under Watch Lists, click on ABI Package Subscriptions to select your ABI (e.g. FreeBSD:14:amd64) & package set (latest/quarterly) combination for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

Description:
Use of bzip2, which is intended to replace bzip, is recommended. The algorithms used in bzip2 are different and incompatible with those used in bzip. To open .bz archives, you must use bzip, and to open .bz2 archives you must use bzip2. Although bzip2 sometimes yields slightly larger output, it is faster, more reliable, maintained, much more widely used and is believed to be patent-free. Julian Seward, the author of bzip, gives this warning: This program may or may not infringe certain US patents pertaining to arithmetic coding and to the block-sorting transformation itself. Opinions differ as to the precise legal status of some of the algorithms used. Nevertheless, you should be aware that commercial use of this program could render you liable to unfriendly legal action.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles

It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.

Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.

There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

Patents are a complicated topic, and their regulation varies depending on
jurisdiction. Patents  are not necessarily related to the license and so
should not be connected to the license framework.

As a project we will officially remove all patent limitations within the
ports tree and leave it to the user or consumer to deal with their local
legislation to determine if they can use the software without legal
restrictions.

Resurrect archivers/bzip and assign maintainer

This port was removed due not having a publically available distfile.
That has been fixed per the PR with maintainership assigned to submitter.

Additionally:

  * The patch-aa was renamed
  * The patch-ab and patch-ac touched the same file; they were combined
    and renamed
  * DragonFly support was added (hence the portrevision bump)
  * GPLv2 license was annotated
  * 80-column formatting was respected
  * PLIST sorted
