iperf3 is a tool for measuring the achievable TCP, UDP, and SCTP
throughput along a path between two hosts. It allows the tuning of
various parameters such as socket buffer sizes and maximum attempted
throughput. It reports (among other things) bandwidth, delay jitter,
and datagram loss. iperf was originally developed by NLANR/DAST.
iperf3 is a new implementation developed from scratch at the Energy
Sciences Network (ESnet). Among its goals were a smaller, simpler
code base (compared to its predecessor, iperf2) and a library version
of the functionality that can be used in other programs. Note that
iperf3 does not interoperate with with iperf 2.x.
===> The following configuration options are available for iperf3-3.22:
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
STATIC=off: Build static executables and/or libraries
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
benchmarks/iperf3: Update to 3.17.1
- Use GitHub is primary site for MASTER_SITES and es.net as fallback
- Use variables in MASTER_SITES
- Minor adjustments to Makefile

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.

When linking a library libA with a library libB using libtool, if libB.la
exists, libtool will add all libraries libB.la refers to (dependency_libs
field) to the linker command line and store them in the dependency_libs
field of libA.la. So everything that subsequently links with libA will also
link to these extra libraries. This causes too much overlinking.
This commit modifies Mk/Uses/libtool.mk so it empties the dependency_libs
field in .la libraries during staging. However, because .la libraries have
very limited use when dependency_libs is empty it makes sense to completely
remove them during staging.
So with this commit USES=libtool is modified to remove .la libraries and a
new form (USES=libtool:keepla) is introduced in case they need to be kept
(dependency_libs is still emptied).

New port: benchmarks/iperf3
iperf is a tool for measuring the maximum TCP and UDP bandwidth along
a path between two hosts. It allows the tuning of various
parameters and UDP characteristics, and reports bandwidth, delay
jitter, datagram loss. iperf was originally developed by NLANR/DAST.
iperf3 is a new implementation from scratch, with the goal of a
smaller, simpler code base, and a library version of the functionality
that can be used in other programs. iperf3 also a number of features
found in other tools such as nuttcp and netperf, but were missing from
iperf 2.x. iperf3 is not backwards compatible with iperf 2.x.
