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.

Description:
The HTTP Time Protocol (HTP) is used to synchronize a computer's time with web servers as reference time source. Htpdate will synchronize your computer's time by extracting timestamps from HTTP headers found in web servers responses. Htpdate can be used as a daemon, to keep your computer synchronized. Accuracy of htpdate is usually better than 0.5 seconds (even better with multiple servers). Htpdate can also work through http proxy.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles

Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.

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.

- fix service script

For some reason the PID written to the pidfile by htpdate does not match its
actual PID, which renders the standard PID-handling mechanism of rc.subr(8)
useless.

As a solution, depend only on the process name to figure out the PID of the
running process.

NB: the old pidfile has to be removed before starting htpdate. Otherwise,
the program complains about the pidfile already existing (which htpdate
interprets as another instance of htpdate already running).

Also:
- Use %%PREFIX%% to let the ports provide a proper path for the binary.
- Do not specify htpdate_flags in command_args. htpdate_flags are already
  passed to the program by rc.subr(8).

According to the Porter's Handbook (5.12.2.3.) default options must be added to
OPTIONS_DEFINE. This policy has been implemented only recently that's why we
have many ports violating this policy.

This patch adds the default options specified in the Porter's Handbook to
OPTIONS_DEFINE where they are being used. Ports maintained by
gnome@FreeBSD.org, kde@FreeBSD.org and x11@FreeBSD.org have been excluded.

Tijl Coosemans has been reported an issue that when root is extracting from the
tarball, and the tarball contains world writable files
(sysutils/policykit as an example), there is a chance that the files
gets changed by malicious third parties right after the extraction,
which makes it possible to inject code into the package thus compromise
