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 FreeSBIE port is a collection of scripts which help a user to create CDs/DVDs containing a complete operating system based on FreeBSD. It is used as "live-cd" and boots straight from CD. Consequent use of filesystem compressing techniques allow to include a huge number of applications on a single disc. Creation of the CDs/DVDs is completely dialog based as well as building and installing of packages. For further information, please visit the official homepage.

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.

Style: improve ONLY_FOR_ARCHS_REASON (grammar, markup, etc.)

ONLY_FOR_ARCHS_REASON is used as part of the sentence and thus should
start with lower-case letter and not end with a period which is added
by the framework, similar to other knobs like BROKEN, IGNORE, et al.

While here, remove needless quoting, add missing Oxford comma, expand
contractions and jargonisms, use correct spelling for proper names.

Remove USE_CDRTOOLS from bsd.port.mk

This macros has been useless since cdrtools-cjk port has gone.
This macros also lead to badly handled dependencies assuming that the dependency
on cdrtools was most BUILD and RUN dependency. While most of the time it is
simply a RUN dependency and sometime a build one.

While here:
- Trim some headers
- Convert some ports to optionsng
- Convert some ports to USES= gettext

- Update freesbie to version 2.0.20060202

---------
After several weeks of testing, the FreeSBIE team considers the new
release 2.0 mature enough to completely replace the legacy releases 1.1.x.
The new freesbie2 set is a complete rewrite, not an incremential
update.
It features a fully modular concept and a significantly lighter framework.
Despite the smaller size of the distfile, everything is included to create
a custom bootable iso in a comfortable, quick manner.
