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.

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

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.

Changes:

2.12.12:
- Recognize references in ABNF comments. Since v2.08.03 references in ABNF
  parts of a document have been ignored, to avoid spurious warnings because of
  bracketed ABNF explressions; but within ABNF comments it is appropriate to
  register references.

2.12.11:
- Added support for explicitly noting downrefs for which excemptions has been
  granted in the past (based on
  http://trac.tools.ietf.org/group/iesg/trac/wiki/DownrefRegistry).

2.12.10:
- Added diagnostic messages for various downloaded status files when running

Upgrade to idnits 1.82:
 * Added checks for the occurence of both old and new boilerplate.
 * Improves verbose output for boilerplate problems.
 * Handle formfeeds better:
   - 58 lines plus <FF><EOL> is valid.
   - Count <FF> on the same line as the page number.
 * Added a variation on Author's Address Section Name
 * The code to find and adapt to the particular indentation of a draft
   didn't work as intended.  Rewritten with somewhat better results.
 * Added a "Draft ..." as an acceptable variation on page header.
