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:
html2text is a command line utility, written in C++, that converts HTML documents (HTML 3.2) into plain text (ISO 8859-1). Each HTML document is loaded from a location indicated by an URI or read from standard input, and formatted into a stream of plain text characters that is written to standard output or into an output-file. The input-URI may specify a remote site, from that the documents are loaded with the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). The program is even able to preserve the original positions of table fields and accepts also syntactically incorrect input, attempting to interpret it "reasonably". The rendering is largely customisable through an RC file.

textproc/html2text: fix build with clang 16

Since clang 16 (and gcc 11) the default C++ standard is now gnu++17.
Because textproc/html2text's Makefile does not explicitly set its C++
standard, this leads to several errors:

  /usr/local/lib/bison.cc:429:3: error: ISO C++17 does not allow 'register'
storage class specifier [-Wregister]
    register int yystate;
    ^~~~~~~~~

Add USE_CXXSTD=gnu++98 to avoid these errors.

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.

Fix CONFLICTS entries of multiple ports

There have been lots of missing CONFLICTS_INSTALL entries, either
because conflicting ports were added without updating existing ports,
due to name changes of generated packages, due to mis-understanding
the format and semantics of the conflicts entries, or just due to
typoes in package names.

This patch is the result of a comparison of all files contained in
the official packages with each other. This comparison was based on
packages built with default options and may therefore have missed
further conflicts with optionally installed files.

Where possible, version numbers in conflicts entries have been
generalized, some times taking advantage of the fact that a port

*/*: Remove redundant '-[0-9]*' from CONFLICTS

The conflict checks compare the patterns first against the package
names without version (as reported by "pkg query "%n"), then - if
there was no match - agsinst the full package names including the
version (as reported by "pkg query "%n-%v").

Many CONFLICTS definitions used patterns like "bash-[0-9]*" to filter
for the bash package in any version. But that pattern is functionally
identical with just "bash".

textproc/html2text: Update CONFLICTS

The CONFLICTS definition did only match conflicting packages built
for Python-2.7, not for later Python versions.

I have not checked whether CONFLICTS_INSTALL would suffice as used
in the conflicting ports. The PORTREVISION has not been bumped since
this parameter is relevant for port building, less so for installing
from a package (which detects the conflicting files).
