Qt6: Update to 6.10.1
I'm not giving the usual fanfare. This has been an absolute slog.
Ports changes:
qt6-base: Added WAYLAND option. This is congruent with the X11 option.
We really don't recommend disabling this option, but it is
available for advanced users who don't want wayland for
whatever reason.

devel/qt6-tools: Avoid LLVM version mismatches
In 6.9.0, the Tools component of Qt introduced more restrictive checks
for versions of LLVM it supports and automatically selects the newest
version installed without an offical override option. This is
problematic for us, because if a user has a version of LLVM installed
greater than what they have set in DEFAULT_VERSIONS, it will cause
configuration errors due to CMake mismatching the latest version of LLVM
found with the version we actually want to build against.
Patch to only supply the version of LLVM we intend to build against to
the checks. These checks need at least the major and minor version of
LLVM to work. Unfortunately, LLVM_VERSION, which only provide the major
version isn't enough, so there's some silliness which is hopefully
explained well enough in the Makefile and in the patch for future
hackers.

PySide6: Update to 6.7.3
New port: devel/qt6-grpc
Qt GRPC is the client-side implementation that, together with the Qt
Protobuf module, allows the definition of messages and services in
.proto files, which then use the provided code generators to generate
client code that allows the access for fields and gRPC services in the
Qt framework. The code generated by Qt GRPC enables the client-side to
communicate with a gRPC server (regardless of whether the server uses
Qt) by sending calls or streaming messages.

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.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
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.
