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:
Ion (based on PWM) is a new kind of window manager that brings a text-editorish, keyboard friendly user interface to window management. Modern GUIs are unusable. Overlapping windows are hard to manage, especially from the keyboard, and the user often ends up in a jungle. Not to mention the application programs, which are even worse. Mouse-based search-and-click interfaces are slow - keyboard is fast having learnt the commands. Ion (the last three letters of vision =-) was written as an example and an experiment of something presumably better (just the window manager, though). Ion simply divides the screen into frames that take the whole screen. Big displays have so much space that this is convenient and smaller displays couldn't show more than one window at a time anyway. The frames can be split and growing the size of one will shrink others. Alike in PWM, clients can be moved between frames and multiple clients can be attached to one frame. With Ion you will hardly ever have to touch the mouse again for navigation between windows and the windows are always in order. WWW: http://modeemi.cs.tut.fi/~tuomov/ion/

New port: shells/ion

Ion is a modern system shell that features a simple, yet powerful,
syntax.  It is written entirely in Rust, which greatly increases
the overall quality and security of the shell, eliminating the
possibilities of a ShellShock-like vulnerability, and making
development easier.  It also offers a level of performance that
exceeds that of Dash, when taking advantage of Ion's features.
While it is developed alongside, and primarily for, RedoxOS, it is
a fully capable on other *nix platforms.

The vast majority of pkg-descr files had the following format when they
had both lines:

Author: ...
WWW: ....

So standardize on that, and move them to the end of the file when necessary.

Also fix some more whitespace, and remove more "signature tags" of varying
forms, like -- name, etc.

s/AUTHOR/Author/

A few other various formatting issues
