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:
Nessus is a security scanner. That is, it's a program which will scan a given network and will seek for vulnerabilities which could be exploited by some remote intruder. The Nessus Project was originally started by Renaud Deraison (deraison@worldnet.fr). Many people contributed in many ways to the project, and the Nessus core team is now made up of Alexis de Bernis (alexisb@mygale.org), who is the Java specialist, Noam Rathaus (dolittle@isrealmail.com) who is in charge of the Nessus client for Windows, and Renaud Deraison who is still here and who is the project leader.

Mark Nessus ports deprecated.  Nessus became proprietary closed-source
software many years ago and the ports are now outdated.  A good alternative
is OpenVAS which started as a fork of the open-source Nessus.

- Display a stage-qa warning when ports use PREFIX/var instead of /var
- Add --localstatedir=/var to _LATE_CONFIGURE_ARGS (like --mandir) but not
  when CONFIGURE_ARGS already sets it.  (GNU configure scripts set it to
  PREFIX/var when PREFIX != /usr.)
- Add --localstatedir="${PREFIX}/var" to CONFIGURE_ARGS in some ports so
  they aren't affected by this change (for now at least).  This commit is
  meant to ensure that new ports don't make the same mistake.

- games/acm: the configure script in this port is very old; instead of
  patching it more, just replace GNU_CONFIGURE with HAS_CONFIGURE.
- irc/charybdis: it already used /var but adding --localstatedir=/var
  changed the behaviour of the configure script; adjust the port to this.
