An installer created by the InstallShield software stores the files it will
install inside of InstallShield Cabinet Files. It would thus be desirable
to be able to extract the Microsoft Cabinet Files from the InstallShield
Cabinet Files in order to be able to install the applications without access
to Microsoft Windows.
- Use a well known open source license (MIT)
- Work on both little-endian and big-endian systems
- Separate the implementation in a tool and a library
- Support InstallShield versions 5 and later
- Be able to list contents of InstallShield Cabinet Files
- Be able to extract files from InstallShield Cabinet Files
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).

This changes almost all the "gnomehack" only USE_GNOME cases to USES= pathfix.
If a port used other USE_GNOME items it was untouched.
The ports that used other USES were fixed by hand.

- Add support for new InstallShield header format instead of calling abort()
(sic!) on such files. When header format could not be detected, try to use
the newest algorithm instead the oldest one; this should make the port more
"future proof"
- Allow to specify header format via command line (-i <version>) to override
default detection logic
- Bump port revision and reformat Makefile header while I am here

New port of unshield, a InstallShield cabinet file reader.
This prgogarm is particularly useful to extract .SYS and .INF files
from NDIS drivers packaged as InstallShield archives, which are required
as input to ndiscvt (i.e. for the NDISulator).
