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:
Xlbiff lets you preview new mail to decide if you want to read it immediately. Regular xbiff lets you know when you have mail but not what it is. Xlbiff lurks in the background, monitoring your mailbox file. When something shows up there, it invokes the scanCommand (MH's scan by default), and displays the output in a window. If more mail comes in, it scans again and resizes accordingly. If you're a Berkeley mail person, you can set scanCommand to: echo x | mail | grep "^.[NU]" Or use the ``frm'' utility that is part of the Elm port as your scanCommand. A simular utility is the ``fromwho'' package, posted to comp.sources.unix volume 25.

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

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
