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.

Description:
VMware tools support FreeBSD _guest_ OS running on VMware Workstation. Beware, this port is _not_ for FreeBSD _host_ OS. VMware tools for FreeBSD consist of vmware-toolbox which supports seamless operation between the Host and the Guest OS, dual-boot configulation files, and special XFree86 3.x server for Guest OS. However, we cannot install dual-boot configuration since it requires to modify /etc files. This ports will install vmware-toolbox to your computer. You may use 'vmware' driver for X server. Vmware-guestd is installed as a separate port, ports/emulators/vmware-guestd3, but this port install guestd automatically. WWW: http://www.vmware.com/products/desktop/ws_features.html

- Add the X_WINDOW_SYSTEM={xorg,xfree86-4,xfree86-3} variable to bsd.port.mk,
  and make XFREE86_VERSION map to it.  XFREE86_VERSION is now deprecated.
- Make xorg the default X_WINDOW_SYSTEM on -current.
- Add several new X_*_PORT variables which point to various pieces of X11 based
  on the setting of X_WINDOW_SYSTEM, and make ports use them.
- Add information to CHANGES about how to handle the transition.

Fixup for package cluster building.

- Mark NO_PACKAGE since these ports require VMware itself.
  (and avoid using .ifdef(PACKAGE_BUILDING) also)
- Forget to mark IS_INTERACTIVE if !BATCH (vmware-guest4).

I've too much asked that where to get files for install.  Apparantly,
the word 'none' is an obscure comment.

No content change, no procedure change, so no bump.

Cosmetic fixes for old VMware guest tools to sync with the latest one.

* Update pkg-descr to point a new ports location.
* Update RUN_DEPENDS to point a new ports location.
* Sync COMMENT message to all versions.
* Use INSTALL_PROGRAM instead of CP since it installs a program.
* Wrap interactive-related script with .if !defined(BATCH) appropriately.
* Unhide UMOUNT command and users will know what's happened.

Correct ports that were abusing the FORBIDDEN variable and replace with
either IGNORE or BROKEN.

Since there seems to be some confusion, for the record:

BROKEN          is reserved for ports that don't work.  This will prevent
                users from installing the port, but please note that
                ports marked as BROKEN will still be built by bento
IGNORE          is reserved for ports that should not be built for one
                reason or another (including bento).  Users and bento
                will not build ports marked as IGNORE.
FORBIDDEN       is reserved for security breakages only!!!  Only mark a
                port as FORBIDDEN if there is a security issue with the
                port at the time.
