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.

- Since security/gnupg (2.x) installs symlink $PREFIX/bin/gpg,
  depending on $PREFIX/bin/gpg for security/gnupg1 (1.4.x) is not
  correct.  To work around this, change dependency line from bin/gpg
  to bin/gpgv which exists in security/gnupg1 port only.

Say goodbye to Qt 1.x and all of its dependents.  The one port I found
which probably isn't supposed to be removed is misc/instant-workstation,
which had a dependency on audio/xamp (being removed), so I removed that
dependency and bumped PORTREVISION.  All other ports are real dependents
upon Qt 1.x, including KDE 1.x stuff.

Code in bsd.kde.mk supporting these ports is also removed or adjusted.
Also, some adjustments made to accomodate Qt3/KDE3 ports, which will be
committed Real Soon Now (TM), pending repo-copies.

This commit made in impending view of Qt3/KDE3 entering ports tree.
