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.

Add Nix, a purely functional package manager

Nix is a purely functional package manager. This means that it treats
packages like values in purely functional programming languages such as
Haskell -- they are built by functions that don't have side-effects,
and they never change after they have been built.

FreeBSD support in Nix is not fully complete yet. This commit only
brings the Nix package manager to the ports. Hopefully, this port will
streamline the work of bootstrapping of Nix packages on FreeBSD.

Thanks to all the kind folks who contributed to the porting efforts.
It was a fun journey.
