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:
Vii (pronounced seven) is a simple program which accepts input from the standard input and displays pages of the input on the terminal. These pages are delimited by form-feeds (or EOF). The display can be scrolled if the output is wider or longer than the screen. Vii can also repeatedly execute a command (at a configurable interval) and the most recent output is displayed. This is useful for status monitoring where the command itself does not have a repeatable or curses interface.

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.

- Update devel/libtool and devel/libltdl to version 2.4.2.418
- Patch libtool so it uses the same library version specification as on
  Darwin, Linux and other systems.  Given the version current:revision:age
  a library will be given the extension .so.major.age.revision with major
  equal to current-age.  Before libtool would use .so.current on FreeBSD.
- Patch libtoolize to remove two cases of umask 0 that caused libltdl
  files to be copied world writable (--ltdl option)
- Let USES=libtool patch this new version correctly
- Adjust all ports with USES=libtool:build and bump PORTREVISION on their
  dependent ports if a library version changed
