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 is a port of btoa version 5.2, written by Paul Rutter, Joe Orost & Stefan Parmark. btoa converts 4 binary characters to 5 ascii ones, causing a 25% expansion. (btoa is thus more efficient than uuencode, which causes a 33% expansion.) Spaces will not be used, which should make it safe to send files over e-mail or Usenet without risking that blanks become tabs. Each resulting row of text has a single-byte checksum for error detection. A diagnosis file provides a list of errors found this way, which could then be used to retransmit only the failing lines. Patch 1 is an unofficial, non-platform-specific patch to version 5.2 of btoa. It allows for automatic decoding of btoa files if the program is invoked as "atob" (no -a argument necessary). It also outfits the Makefile to do clean and install.

MASTER_SITES cleanup.

- Replace ${MASTER_SITE_FOO} with FOO.
- Merge MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR into MASTER_SITES when possible. (This means 99.9%
  of the time.)
- Remove occurrences of MASTER_SITE_LOCAL when no subdirectory was present and
  no hint of what it should be was present.
- Fix some logic.
- And generally, make things more simple and easy to understand.

While there, add magic values to the FESTIVAL, GENTOO, GIMP, GNUPG, QT and
SAMBA macros.

Also, replace some EXTRACT_SUFX occurences with USES=tar:*.

For ports maintained by ports@FreeBSD.org, remove names and/or
e-mail addresses from the pkg-descr file that could reasonably
be mistaken for maintainer contact information in order to avoid
confusion on the part of users looking for support. As a pleasant
side effect this also avoids confusion and/or frustration for people
who are no longer maintaining those ports.
