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:
The libffi library provides a portable, high level programming interface to various calling conventions.

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.

devel/libffi: Fix build on i386 without objdump

FreeBSD 13 does not have any objdump in the default installation, which
causes issues with libffi on i386 with the recent update to llvm 11.
Add a patch originally from upstream, to use readelf instead of objdump.

The patch is for configure.ac originally.  I've applied it and rerun
autoreconf and committed the result, instead of adding a dependency on
autoreconf.

Fix devel/libffi321 in the same way.  While here, fix the fuzz on a few
other patches, which made it much easier to sort out the configure patch.

Thanks to dim@ for helping me figure out the issue.

add new port devel/libffi321

Add a new port, devel/libffi321, which is a stripped down version of libffi
3.2.1.  This version only brings in the shared library from libffi 3.2.1
(the libffi 3.3.0 update bumped the version number of the shlib) for binary
consumers that can't easily be recompiled and updated against the new
version of libffi.
This version is not meant to be linked against, and you should not depend on
it to bring libffi in, unless you explicitly need the binary compat.
Libraries are installed in ${LOCALBASE}/lib/compat.
