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/vm-bhyve-devel: add new port

Contrary to the sysutils/vm-bhyve port which tracks releases,
this port will track the head of the main branch. The main reason
is that upstream has become stale in creating releases. This way
we atleast get some improvements that have not yet been included
in a release. Last release dates from January 2020.
