Description:
KadNode finds the IP address of other instances on the Internet or local network. It is used like DNS, but is based on the decentralized BitTorrent network. KadNode intercepts .p2p domain queries on the systems level and resolves them using a decentralized Kademlia DHT network. Additionally, TLS authentication can be used to make sure the correct IP address was found. If successful, the IP address is passed to the application making the request. Features: * Support for two kinds of domains: ** public key domains as <public-key>.p2p *** No need to exchange any further keys/certificates *** Uses secp256r1 ECC key pairs ** named domains like yourdomain.com.p2p *** Needs pre-shared certificates (self-signed root certificates or e.g. Let's Encrypt) *** Uses TLS session handshake for authentication * IPv4/IPv6 support * UPnP/NAT-PMP support * Local peer discovery * Small size / ~100KB depending on features / ~50KB compressed * Command line control program * NSS support through /etc/nsswitch.conf * DNS server interface and DNS proxy ** Handles A (IPv4 address),AAAA (IPv6), and SRV requests * Packages for ArchLinux, Debian, FreeBSD, MacOSX, OpenWrt, Windows * Peer file import/export on startup/shutdown and every 24h * Uses sha256 hash method

security/mbedtls: Move to security/mbedtls2

The port has expired but isn't removed yet because there are still too
many consumers.  Rename it because the name "security/mbedtls" makes it
look like it's the default version.

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.
