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.

Revision:559792Original commit files touched by this commit

Remove most expired ports that depend on Python 2.7:

Exceptions are:
- mail/mailman, our listservers still use it
- www/chromium, solely because of popular demand,
  upstream is (slowly) working on porting it to Python 3
- ports that have actual patches for Python 3 against
  them (Cinnamon and a few unrelated other ports)
- llvm70 and qt5-webengine because they seem to have a lot
  of dependencies which need further analysis
- sysutils/uefi-edk2-bhyve because bhyve seems to use them
- python2 and python27 themselves

I'm sure there will be complaints, but the nice thing about
a version control system is that we can revert and adjust things.
