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) combinatio for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

Description:
This program provides a convenient way to manage many remote serial consoles for machines. A server (conserver(8)) runs on each server machine and it connects to the specified serial port. It can log, provide shared access to remote consoles, etc. If there are multiple machines running conserver(8), a master conserver(8) can be run to connect to all the slave servers, providing a single point of access to the entire cluster. This is very handy for remote unattended FreeBSD servers. It can send serial break signals which is useful for breaking into DDB on hung machines. WWW: http://www.conserver.com/

In the rc.d scripts, change assignments to rcvar to use the
literal name_enable wherever possible, and ${name}_enable
when it's not, to prepare for the demise of set_rcvar().

In cases where I had to hand-edit unusual instances also
modify formatting slightly to be more uniform (and in
some cases, correct). This includes adding some $FreeBSD$
tags, and most importantly moving rcvar= to right after
name= so it's clear that one is derived from the other.
