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) combination for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

net/wifi-firmware-*: use metaport for "base" and switch to Makefile.inc

Rename the wifi-firmware-base to wifi-firmware-kmod (similar to
gpu-firmware-mod).  The former was never build so technically it
is no move.  Make the new subdir a metaport including all
wireless firmware.
Move the old Makefile to Makefile.inc and adjust the child ports
accordingly.

This solves two problems: (1) the base port is now buildable and (2)
there is a single port to depend on to add all the needed firmware
files to, e.g., put on a release media.

net/wifi-firmware-*: add framework and firmware for various WiFi chipsets

Add a "base port framework" to fetch (WiFi) firmware and license files
from the linux-firmware.git repository and an accompanying FreeBSD
build kmod framework tarball (for now; we might do without that in
the future).
Add child ports for Realtek rtw88 and rtw89, Mediatek mt76, and
Atheros ath10k and ath11k firmware as a start.

This is a beginning in order to stop bloating src.git and the
installed kernels with lots of MB of firmware files whereas usually
only one vebdor/chipset/flavor is needed.  Before fully switching
more infrastructure needs to be in place but this is the first and
most important step.
