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.

Add two new metaports comprising a set of tools to work with the Ports
Collection.  One is targeted to the audience of people who wish to
install ports from source and then maintain their system; the other,
more specialized, is intended for ports authors.

These might be good candidates for a "start here" reference for those
new to the ports collection and port maintenance.  They might also serve
to introduce more people to fastest-cvsup, pkg_cutleaves, libchk, and
porttools, which IMHO would be A Good Thing.
