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:
xwatchwin allows you to peek at a window on another X server. To use it, you must specify the display name of the machine you want to watch, then the name of the window on that machine. Xwatchwin will attempt to connect with the X server hostname:0.0, and if successful, will try to retrieve a copy of the window in which you specified interest. You may specify the window you want to watch either by name or by its window id, usually a hexidecimal number. Usually specifying the window by name is simpler, although not all windows have names associated with them; in that case you must use the window id option. If the window you want to watch is not in a viewable state, xwatchwin will tell you so and exit. If while you are watching a window it becomes 'unviewable', xwatchwin will wait until the window becomes 'viewable' again. xwatchwin was written as an aid to a class for people learning to use X. The idea is that the instructor would type into an xterm window on his/her display and the students would use xwatchwin to see what the instructor typed. The students could then type the same thing in their own terminal windows. Hopefully others will find equally (if not more) constructive uses.

MASTER_SITES cleanup.

- Replace ${MASTER_SITE_FOO} with FOO.
- Merge MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR into MASTER_SITES when possible. (This means 99.9%
  of the time.)
- Remove occurrences of MASTER_SITE_LOCAL when no subdirectory was present and
  no hint of what it should be was present.
- Fix some logic.
- And generally, make things more simple and easy to understand.

While there, add magic values to the FESTIVAL, GENTOO, GIMP, GNUPG, QT and
SAMBA macros.

Also, replace some EXTRACT_SUFX occurences with USES=tar:*.

Convert most of remaining ports that depend on xorg-libraries to
modular xorg.

- supply corresponding USE_XORG for all imake-using ports that need it
- USE_IMAKE no longer implies USE_XLIB in absence of USE_XORG
- retire USE_X_PREFIX which is not really used anywhere after the
  above change
- a few minor nits like whitespace and SF macro
