sysutils/cpupdate: fix microcode download for package users
* adopt for changes in Mk/ that broke microcode download for package users;
* update for platomav/CPUMicrocodes r268;
* update for Intel pack microcode-20230613.
Bump PORTREVISION.
PR: 271801
Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
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.

sysutils/cpupdate: minor update
- sync with platomav/CPUMicrocodes MCE DB r181;
- sync with Intel's microcode-20210216;
- bump PORTREVISION for "service cpupdate download"
to fetch updated microcodes for package users.
sysutils/cpupdate: minor update
- sync with platomav/CPUMicrocodes MCE DB r165
- sync with Intel's microcode-20201110
No functional changes so PORTREVISION not bumped.
sysutils/cpupdate: introduce "service cpupdate download"
New command "service cpupdate download" targeted
for package users is equivalent to "make install-microcodes"
already present for ports users. (*)
Also, sync with Intel pack microcode-20200616 available from Github.

Minor update for sysutils/cpupdate:
- sync with Intel's microcode-20180807.tgz;
- sync with platomav/CPUMicrocodes MCE DB r79;
- follow audio/lame practice and add some comments to the "LICENSE" section
of port's Makefile describing possible legal issues preventing microcode
redistribution due to multiple user requests.
No package changes, so no PORTREVISION bump.

sysutils/cpupdate: more suspend/resume support
Startup script got support for extra command "resume"
that is supposed to be used for "service cpupdate resume" invocation
at resume sequence. For now, it is identical to "start".
Minor updates to sysutils/cpupdate:
- fix typo in cpupdate_ibrs_enable previously named cpupdate_irbs_enable;
- catch up with upstream README.md update that does not state anymore
that it is work in progress but mention it is for Intel only still;
- catch up with platomav/CPUMicrocodes MCE DB r65 update for completeness
despite it has only AMD updates comparing previous r64;
- update pkg-message with note that suspend/resume sequence
clears microcode update;
- add new keyword "resume" to startup script to ease its invocation
on resume by means of rcorder(8).

Update sysutils/cpupdate:
- sync with platomav/CPUMicrocodes MCE DB r64;
- remove useless use of subshell;
- rcorder runs /etc/rc.d/sysctl before FILESYSTEMS to process /etc/sysctl.conf
so let cpupdate's startup script automatically enable
Indirect Branch Restricted Speculation after successful
start of ${PRERIX}/sbin/cpupdate, if possible, unless this is disabled
with new "cpupdate_irbs_enable" rc.conf variable;
- bump PORTREVISION.
Small update to sysutils/cpupdate:
- sync with platomav/CPUMicrocodes MCE DB r63;
- more pkg-descr polishing;
- no real package changes, no PORTREVISION bump.
sysutils/cpupdate: new convenience target "install-microcodes"
Some users may prefer copying the whole bunch of CPU microcodes
to their system instead of just needed one. Add new Makefile target
"install-microcodes" to ease such copying and mention it in the pkg-message.
This is still for convenience only and those blobs do not get into
the pkg-plist and the package and need to be manually removed
if not needed anymore.

sysutils/cpupdate: update to g20180323
In new version:
- fix comment in the startup script on "cpupdate_flags" defaults for rc.conf;
- catch up with recent changes of platomav/CPUMicrocodes: updated to MCE DB r62.
- removed patch that was integrated (auto load cpuctl.ko, compiler warning);
- fixed crash when no supported CPU found (*);
Reported by: Eitan Adler (*)
sysutils/cpupdate: update to g20180320
Additional port changes:
- move binary from /bin/ to /sbin/ as this is sysadmin's utility;
- supply startup script for boot time updates started as early as possible,
before configuration of network interfaces;
- make code respect PREFIX;
- patch source to kldload("cpuctl") automatically, if needed;
- fix some compiler warning;
- update pkg-descr to mention that CPU microcode updates bringing
new features like IBRS require recent FreeBSD version
for sake of CPUCTL_EVAL_CPU_FEATURES support.
sysutils/cpupdate: - correct ONLY_FOR_ARCHS_REASON message;
- be more specific in the COMMENT and pkg-descr: mention x86-centricity;
- in addition to CPM option, add INTEL convinience option to ease
downloading and extraction of recently updated Intel's pack of microcode updates
https://downloadmirror.intel.com/27591/eng/:intel/microcode-20180312.tgz
allowed for end users but not for redistribution, so it does not get
installed nor added to pkg-plist.
Still no real changes of the package, so no PORTREVISION bump yet.
sysutils/cpupdate: catch up with recent changes of
http://github.com/platomav/CPUMicrocodes
Also, improve pkg-descr a bit.
No real package changes, so no change of PORTREVISION.
sysutils/cpupdate: - polish COMMENT a bit;
- add an option (disabled by default) to download and extract
CPU microcode collection from https://github.com/platomav/CPUMicrocodes
while building the port. These files do not get installed nor put
into the package that has not changed, so no PORTREVISON bump.
