USB_ModeSwitch is (surprise!) a mode switching tool for controlling
"flip flop" (multiple device) USB gear.
USB_ModeSwitch makes this process easy to handle by taking the important
parameters from a configuration file and doing all the initialization
and communication stuff, with heavy help from "libusb". It is mainly
used automatically - via udev events and rules - to do the switch
without any user interaction. But it can also be run as a command line
tool, usually when trying to make unknown devices work with it.
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.

sysutils/usb_modeswitch: update from 2.2.5 to 2.3.0 and add LICENSE_FILE
Version 2.3.0
- ATTENTION: -I flag is now history and being ignored - determining SCSI
attributes is really an 'outside task'
- -n flag (NeedResponse) is being ignored, CSW response will now always be
read
- introduction of parameter "OptionMode", wrapping the standard bulk
message for all newer Huawei devices
- fixed missing variable initialization in dispatcher script which could lead
to crash (thanks, Dmitry Kunilov!)
- fixed bug which prevented early logging
- fixed success report for Cisco AM10
