deskutils/vit: Update to 2.3.5

Keeps the command input when quote validation fails, defers the terminal
setup until after the screen is cleared and takes calc_width from the
public urwid API.  Packaging now covers Python 3.11 through 3.15.

deskutils/vit: Update to 2.3.4, take maintainership

VIT was rewritten in Python upstream in 2.0 and is feature-complete
with VIT 1.x. The Perl 1.2 version this port installed is no longer
distributed by taskwarrior.org.

- Build from the PyPI sdist with USE_PYTHON=pep517.
- Depend on py-tasklib, py-urwid and Taskwarrior.
- The configuration is now ~/.vit/config.ini, a vitrc from VIT 1.x is
  not read.

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

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.

VIT (Visual Interactive Taskwarrior) is a lightweight, curses-based front end
for Taskwarrior that provides a convenient way to quickly navigate and process
tasks. VIT allows you to interact with tasks in a Vi-intuitive way. A goal of
VIT is to allow you to customize the way in which you use Taskwarrior's core
commands as well as to provide a framework for easily dispatching external
commands (both user scripts and Taskwarrior's many External Scripts).
