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.

databases/libnvpair: New major version (so.1 => so.3)

The changes since version 1.0.2 were significant enough to warrant
a major library version bump.  However, libnvpair.so.2 exists in
FreeBSD base, so the port version builds libnvpair.so.3 instead.

With one exception, all of the Solaris/Illumos types have been
replaced with BSD equivalents, including boolean_t.  This changes
several prototypes, and also allows for the type compatibility header
to be removed.  The one type that remains is hrtime_t (equivalent to
int64_t).

Internally, the regression tests for print_json (functionality that
does not exist in FreeBSD base, at least on F9) have been added from
Illumos regression tests and both DragonFly and FreeBSD pass.

Add new port databases/libnvpair

libnvpair is a name-value pair library originating from Solaris

The nvpair library was released in OpenSolaris and has been extended
by the Illumos project.  It exports a set of functions used for managing
name-value pairs.  This is a base library for Solaris and its descendents.
However, the kernel-specific code has been removed thus libnvpair is
strictly meant for the userland.  The XDR functionality has been masked
for now due to RPC differences between *BSD and Illumos.
