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.

Update to 4.5.1 build 7568, with lots of cleanup.

- USE_RC_SUBR.  Inspired by ports/net/dtcpclient (thanks ume-san).
        Since now, loading kernel modules and/or start vmware-guestd can
        be tweaked via following rc.conf variables:
                * vmware_guestd_enable (default to YES)
                * vmware_guest_kmod_enable (default to NO)
        vmware-guest_kmod.sh is removed; both are handled by a single
        shell script, vmware-guestd.sh.
- Bulid kernel module iff kernel source files are available.
        This check is just a static checking of /usr/src/sys/Makefile.
        It would be even better that '/usr/src' can be changed to other
        place, but I believe that most user puts a source code under /usr/src,
        or other places and set a symlink to there.  If it hits you badly,
        I'm willing to apply your patch to fix(?) it.
- If this ports is used by ports/emulators/vmware-tools4, install XFree86
  server modules, vmware_drv.o and vmmouse_drv.o.
        The vmware_drv.o is a (virtual) graphic chip driver.  I believe that
        if you have already installed XFree86 4.3.0, it should be the same
        one but compiled on XFree86 4.3.99.2.  I've confirmed that it should
        work with XFree86 4.3.0 server.

        The vmmouse_drv.o is a mouse driver, use it instead of default
        mouse driver, mouse_drv.o.  It works, but if my test is correct,
        it doesn't support Emulate3Buttons.  Use with care.

        Both drivers are installed to appropriate directory, but renamed
        (append '_VMware' to the filename) to avoid any conflicts to other
        ports (especially ports/x11/XFree86*).

P.S.: Happy version 4.5.1, ACPI is enabled by default for FreeBSD guest OS.

Update VMware Tools for 4.0.1 build-5289, the latest version of VMware
Workstation.

This commit makes vmware-tools4 a slave port of vmware-guestd4, since
both are made from the same tarball, and it would be easy to maintain.
Vmware-guestd4 also installs a kernel module named vmmemctl; you may
want to kldload(8) it with a shell script under rc.d/ directory.

VMware Workstation 4.0.1 does fix "jumping the pointer" bug (yeah, thanks
VMware developer team).  This means that you do not have to install
linux-vmware-toolbox4.  However, it can be used as it should be, I
do not disable and/or remove this port.
