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.

This port provides a script which spawns both /sbin/dhclient and /usr/local/sbin/dhclient -6; this simplifies the configuration needed to run DHCP on both protocols of a dual-stack network.

net/dual-dhclient: Mark as deprecated

Users should switch to the net/dual-dhclient-daemon port, which I
added in October 2019; it serves the same purpose of launching two
dhclient daemons, but has the advantage of also relaying signals
(necessary for e.g. making "restart" work).

Add "dual dhclient" script, which can be specified as dhclient_program in
rc.conf in order to launch the base system dhclient for IPv4 and the ISC
dhcp client for IPv6.

I'm not sure if this will be useful to anyone else, but adding this trivial
port will simplify the configuration of IPv6 on Amazon EC2 instances.  I
hope this port becomes redundant in the future due to the base system
gaining support for IPv6 DHCP.
