Argobots is a lightweight runtime system that supports integrated
computation and data movement with massive concurrency. It will
directly leverage the lowest-level constructs in the hardware and
OS: lightweight notification mechanisms, data movement engines,
memory mapping, and data placement strategies.
textproc/gnugrep (dependencies): do not rely on compatibility symlink
Historically we had built and installed GNU grep programs as `grep' +
[ef]grep, but started to configure the port with `--program-prefix=g'
in 2022, as we and several other non-GNU/Linux systems, e.g. NetBSD,
OpenBSD, Solaris, macOS do for miscellaneous GNU utilities. To avoid
breaking POLA, g-prefixless compatibility symlinks were being created,
subject to the COMPAT option (on by default).
Recently GNU grep developers decided to deprecate {e,f}grep variants,
with the clear intention to consolidate all three greps into a single
command. This had significantly annoyed users who could not update
their scripts to `grep -[EF]', usually for portability reasons, e.g.
SunOS 4.11 grep which does not support those switches, but does have
egrep and fgrep, or when scripts are written by others and they don't
have permissions to modify them, etc. Perhaps it is time to turn the
COMPAT option off by default, this commit concludes the preparation.

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.
