Get notified when packages are built

A new feature has been added. FreshPorts already tracks package built by the FreeBSD project. This information is displayed on each port page. You can now get an email when FreshPorts notices a new package is available for something on one of your watch lists. However, you must opt into that. Click on Report Subscriptions on the right, and New Package Notification box, and click on Update.

Finally, under Watch Lists, click on ABI Package Subscriptions to select your ABI (e.g. FreeBSD:14:amd64) & package set (latest/quarterly) combination for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

Never set WRKSRC when using USE_GITHUB.

If you want to set WRKSRC, set GH_PROJECT instead.
- The GitHub URLs are case insensitive, but the distribution files you
  get out of them are not.
- If the repository was renamed, the old URL will still work, but the
  distribution name will be ith the new name.

Most commonly used build systems support silent builds, when they
hide actual commands executed and only show short summary line (like
"CC foo.c"). CMake and ninja enable this by default, some autotools
using ports do as well. This is unacceptable because we need complete
build logs at any time, so we now switch to verbose build logs
unconditionally. Note that this change deliberately affects ALL
builds and not only package builds on cluster, because we need to
be sure that user experiencing failure can always provide informative
build log regardless of settings and without rerunning the build.

Change summary:

- Always do verbose builds for cmake, ninja and GNU configure (the
  latter includes check if --disable-silent-rules is actually supported
  by the configure script; there are isolated cases when it's not true)

Improve shebangfix framework

- Support multiple values in *_OLD_CMD, i.e. we can now fix both
"/usr/bin/python" and "/usr/bin/env python" at the same time
- Default *_OLD_CMD values are now always appended, so you don't need to specify
them in individual ports
- Add lua support (depends on USES=lua)
- Add more default values, such as "/usr/bin/env foo" for python, perl, bash,
ruby and lua
- Shebangfix now matches whole words, e.g. we will no longer (erroneously)
replace "/usr/bin/perl5.005" with "${perl_CMD}5.005" (but "/usr/bin/perl -tt" is
still (correctly) replaced with "${perl_CMD} -tt")

Note that *_OLD_CMD items containing spaces must now be quoted (e.g.
perl_OLD_CMD=/bin/perl /usr/bin/perl "/usr/bin/env perl")

Update shebangfix usage according to new rules in many ports:

- Remove *_OLD_CMD for patterns now replaced by default
- Quote custom *_OLD_CMD which contain spaces

Fix shebangfix usage in many ports (irrelevant to infrastructure change):

- Remove redundant SHEBANG_LANG (no need to duplicate default langs)
- Remove redundant *_CMD (such as
python_CMD=${LOCALBASE}/bin/python${PYTHON_VER} when USES=python is present)
- Never use *_OLD_CMD in REINPLACE_CMD matchers, these should always look for
exact string

Convert all :U to :tu and :L to :tl

Since FreeBSD 8.4 and FreeBSD 9.1 make(1) do support :tu and :tl as a
replacement for :U and :L (which has been marked as deprecated)

bmake which is the default on FreeBSD 10+ only support by default
:tu/:tl a hack has been added at the time to support :U and :L to ease
migration. This hack is now not necessary anymore

Note that this makes the ports tree incompatible with make(1) from
FreeBSD 8.3 or earlier
