libb64 is a library of ANSI C routines for fast encoding/decoding of data
into and from a Base64-encoded format. C++ wrappers are included, as well
as the source code for standalone encoding and decoding executables.
Base64 uses a subset of displayable ASCII characters, and is therefore a
useful encoding for storing binary data in a text file, such as XML, or
sending binary data over text-only communication channels.
converters/libb64: Remove stray MASTER_SITES
Port is converted to USE_GITHUB which conflicts with MASTER_SITES
Passed tests because source file was already fetched and available in

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.

- Improve COMMENT: make it concise and mention that it's about Base64
- Unbreak the build on PowerPC by adding -fsigned-char to CFLAGS (and
also respect them by removing hardcoded -O3)
- Rename a patch and regenerate it with `make makepatch' command
- Clean up do-install target (sanitize symlink, wrap overly long line)
- Reformat and kill EOL whitespace in the port description text
