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:
From libfiredns(3): "libfiredns is a library for handling asynchronous DNS requests. It provides a very simple interface for sending requests and parsing reponses, as well as low-timeout blocking functions. It can also be compiled to override the BIND/LIBC functions with its alternative implementations. libfiredns functions have much lower timeouts than the stock functions and tend to be faster because they send requests to all configured system nameservers at the same time."

Massive repo-copies request: net->dns (partly devel->dns)

        The category "dns" has been added, now is the time to move
        the dns-related ports to the new world. Is there anyone who
        is brave enough to complete this difficult job? ;)
