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.

Description:
Actually, we're not trying to reinvent the wheel here, rather adapt it to suit a slightly different purpose. Below are a few main points and reasons as to why we've created filetype: * file does not work so well for loosely defined filetypes ( ie, vCards ) * file uses a text-based type database which can impose unwanted delays in frequently invoked processes * file does not have a heirachial type tree (ie, executable->MSDOS->EXE ) * file is not designed to be incorporated at a source level into existing projects * Simpler and broader type detection engine ( 'file' is very good at pulling out every detail about a file, ie, the resolution of an image, however we do not wish to seek out such fine details )

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.

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.
