lang/python: restore USES=python variables and SUB_LIST (no-op)
Has been a to do item for time. These are independent from but used
by the bytecode trigger.
lang/python: Revert "add bytecode trigger"
This reverts commit c17ddfbf66e2801ec620d49979aca3d7077d7002.
This causes breakage on several ports, and the next iteration
requires a full exp-run. See:

lang/python3: allow using LTO on powerpc64
It was recently fixed and will be available in 13.2-RELEASE.
Since LTO is not enabled by default, it's ok to make it available.
lang/python: add bytecode trigger
Facilitates compiling, writing and removing bytecode files (.pyc)
in site-packages after all pkg transactions have been completed.
Technical details: https://wiki.freebsd.org/Python/CompiledPackages
Fixes reports of Python port builds as root failing on filesystem
violations due to bytecode file writes where the port did not include
them in the package.
For those ports/packages that currently package bytecode, some
checksum mismatches on those files may occur. This is harmless and
will be rectified, in large as part of a USE_PYTHON=distutils
overhaul to reduce churn.
While here, implement a long-standing todo item of letting lang/python
ports use python.mk bits. Not only does this obviate duplicate
variables in each Makefile, but SUB_LIST (also added) is used for
these triggers.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
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.

lang/python3(6|7|8|9|10|11): work around unwanted multiarch detection again
In ports 6bef09666460 we patched out python's erroneous multiarch

lang/python3X: Fix library installation
The Python ports install the library libpython3.x.so under $PREFIX/lib,
and they set USE_LDCONFIG, but these libraries are not registered, due
to a missing symlink, and they are not found by `ldconfig -r'.
This commit make them to be registered, and for some reason it helps the
dynamic linker to find them, and this allows to fix an error in
french/aster. It also helps to fix errors in newer releases of math/sage
(not yet ready to be committed due to other problems).
No exp-run, but it has been tested with many ports on several platforms.

It breaks with clang >= 13, which adds a major.minor version number in

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named

to disable the multiarch check, stub it out during post-patch.

lang/python*: Replace DISABLED_EXTENSIONS with Setup.local
Currently, lang/python38 and lang/python39 don't honor
DISABLED_EXTENSIONS because patch-issue20210 was removed when
lang/python38 was added to the ports tree. patch-issue20210 is still
present on lang/python36 and lang/python37.
Building with poudriere is not affected because builds are executed in a
clean environment.
Setup.local is the more canonical and recommended method for customizing
Python builds for shared extensions & third party libraries.
Support for a *disabled* marker in Setup files was introduced in Python
3.7, so backport this fix to it to keep consistency in the ports tree.

lang/python3{6,7,8,9}: Backport close_range patches
Worked out over BPO-40422 and BPO-40423, this is the culmination of months
of work to coordinate with Linux and get close_range(2) added to FreeBSD,
then the usage accepted into CPython. It has landed for Python 3.10 and here
I've backported it locally to all the supported Python 3 versions we have.
Note that this does include and supercede our previous closefrom(2) patches.
There was a lot of intersection between the work done, so this patch against
the ports tree does remove those patches from each of the ports in favor of
this patch. All the patches involved have been accepted and merged upstream.
This patch will bring a performance boost in some more situations on 12.2
and 13.0, as close_range exists there.
There is one additional patch sitting in an upstream PR that shuffles the
_Py_closerange implementation into a different file -- this is not important
for the backport, and the absence of that patch here will not realistically
cause any issues.

lang/python{27,35,36,37,38}: Add closefrom(2) support
A single close(fd) syscall is cheap, but when MAXFDS (maximum file
descriptor number) is high, the loop calling close(fd) on each file
descriptor can take several milliseconds.
The default value of subprocess.Popen "close_fds" parameter changed to True
in Python 3. Compared to Python 2, close_fds=True can make Popen 10x
slower: see bpo-37790 [1]
The present workaround on FreeBSD to improve performance is to load and
mount the fdescfs kernel module, but this is not enabled by default.
This change adds minimum viable (and upstreamable) closefrom(2) syscall
support to Python's subprocess and posix modules, improving performance

lang/python27,35+: Remove MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE
ports r393217 via bug 200622 [1] originally set MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE=yes due to
incorrect uses of recursive make [2], causing intermittent build failures when
run with multiple jobs (-jN).
Upstream committed a fix for the issue in default (3.6, at the time), 3.5 and
2.7 which are now contained in all released lang/python?? port versions. 3.4 did
not receieve a backport merge.
lang/python3.5+ ports inadvertently inherited MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE=yes, via
repocopies from lang/python34 on their creation, when they were infact safe to
use with -j.
Remove MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE in all lang/python?? ports except python34 accordingly.

lang/python3?: Fix python3.?-config behavior when symlinked
When python3.?-config is symlinked to another location it starts
outputting bogus paths. For example
$ pwd
/home/tobias
$ python3.6-config --includes
-I/usr/local/include/python3.6m -I/usr/local/include/python3.6m
$ ln -s /usr/local/bin/python3.6-config python3-config
$ ./python3-config --includes
-I/home/include/python3.6m -I/home/include/python3.6m
This breaks ports trying to use BINARY_ALIAS together with
python3.?-config. Apply a patch to resolve the symlink first before
trying to find the install prefix.
