securefs mounts a regular directory onto a mount point. The mount point appears
as a regular filesystem, where one can read/write/create files, directories and
symbolic links. The underlying directory will be automatically updated to
contain the encrypted and authenticated contents.
filesystems: add new category for file systems and related utilities
The filesystems category houses file systems and file system utilities.
It is added mainly to turn the sysutils/fusefs-* pseudo-category into
a proper one, but is also useful for the sundry of other file systems
related ports found in the tree.
Ports that seem like they belong there are moved to the new category.
Two ports, sysutils/fusefs-funionfs and sysutils/fusefs-fusepak are
not moved as they currently don't fetch and don't have TIMESTAMP set
in their distinfo, but that is required to be able to push a rename
of the port by the pre-receive hook.

sysutils/fusefs-securefs: Mark broken and return to the pool
The port became broken recently, and I'm not using it anymore,
so just give it to anyone interested.
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.

New port: sysutils/fusefs-securefs
securefs is a filesystem in userspace (FUSE) with transparent encryption
(when writing) and decryption (when reading).
securefs mounts a regular directory onto a mount point. The mount point appears
as a regular filesystem, where one can read/write/create files, directories and
symbolic links. The underlying directory will be automatically updated to
contain the encrypted and authenticated contents.
