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.

sysutils/root-tail: Resurrect port, Print text directly to X11 root window

Simple utility to tail files/logs to a root X window.
Useful for keeping tabs on log files in X without having
an additional terminal window open.

Removed in commit 0786acb3155523a38d1442f3c16ca56750f1db04 due to
being expired. It previously used roottail but is now
using root-tail to follow upstream naming.
