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.

Description:
Unicode define some character width as ambiguous. Software determines the width of characters accroding the context. However, sometimes it is hard or impossible to know the context. Thus, this port dirty fixes some console software, let them recognize all characters in Big5 encoding range as double width. Now you will be happy with UTF8 terminal and Big5 fonts :) This port fixes the zh_TW.UTF-8 locale for wcwidth(3) and wcswidth(3).

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles

Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.

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.

The output of tools like awk, date, sort, tr,... depends on the current
locale set by the user.  Add LANG=C and LC_ALL=C at the beginning of
bsd.port.mk and export them so all commands are executed with the C locale.
LC_ALL=C overrides all other LC_* variables.  LANG is used by setlocale(3)
as default value for LC_* variables, so normally it isn't used when LC_ALL
is set, but there's code out there that looks at LANG directly so it's safer
to set it as well.  The only commands not captured by this are !=
assignments before any inclusion of bsd.port.*mk.

Introduce USE_LOCALE=<locale> that adds LANG=<locale> and LC_ALL=<locale> to
CONFIGURE_ENV and MAKE_ENV so upstream build systems can be executed with a
different locale (e.g. USE_LOCALE=en_US.UTF-8).

- Now I understand what really happened. share/locale/zh_TW.UTF-8/LC_CTYPE
  is a symlink to ../UTF-8/LC_CTYPE. So, changing the linking target is
  enough.

This should really fix pointyhat build.

- Link is evil. Instead, we directly overwrite the locale file and
  put it back when deinstall.

This should fix the build according to my tinderbox.
