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:
A tool to check operability of computer hardware and upload result to the online hardware database. Probe is a snapshot of your computer hardware state and system logs. The tool checks operability of devices by analysis of logs and returns a permanent URL to view the probe of the computer. The tool is intended to simplify collecting of logs necessary for investigating hardware related problems. Just run one simple command (requires superuser privileges) in the console to check your hardware and collect all the system logs at once: # hw-probe -all -upload By creating probes you also contribute to the HDD/SSD reliability test study (https://github.com/bsdhw/SMART).

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles

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

This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
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.

Helps to get more complete and accurate probe, e.g. `dual_boot_win'

sysutils/hw-probe: the port had been updated to version 1.6.1

Modify upstream source code a bit: 1) FreeBSD is definitely a known
BSD, so add it to the corresponding list; 2) limit GhostBSD-specific
"pkg rquery '%v' ports" command to GhostBSD: it tries to access the
network which slows down the probing process, sometimes considerably
(e.g. when network is not available or blocked); 3) search processes
correctly with pgrep(1), as filtering ``ps x'' output would capture
the grep(1) arguments themselves.

- Update to 1.6-beta2 (upstream reused the previous tag, so point
  GH_TAGNAME to the particular commit) and augment CATEGORIES
- Now dual licensed under LGPL-2.1-or-later or BSD-4-clause
- Conditionally depend on ports which are only available on x86,
  to make it usable on e.g. PowerPC (tested on Mac mini G4)
- Remove references to Linux and sudo(8) from the port description
  per request from the upstream author
