Most USES use a colon for build/run(/test) suffixes. Change kde.mk,
qt.mk and pyqt.mk to do the same, and update all ports using that.

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.

This commit implements such a proposal and moves one of the WWW: entries
of each pkg-descr file into the respective port's Makefile. A heuristic
attempts to identify the most relevant URL in case there is more than
one WWW: entry in some pkg-descr file. URLs that are not moved into the
Makefile are prefixed with "See also:" instead of "WWW:" in the pkg-descr
files in order to preserve them.

There are 1256 ports that had no WWW: entries in pkg-descr files. These
ports will not be touched in this commit.

The portlint port has been adjusted to expect a WWW entry in each port
Makefile, and to flag any remaining "WWW:" lines in pkg-descr files as
deprecated.

Bump PORTREVISION for ports depending on the canonical version of GCC as defined in Mk/bsd.default-versions.mk which has moved from GCC 8.3 to GCC 9.1 under most circumstances now after revision 507371.

This includes ports
 - with USE_GCC=yes or USE_GCC=any,
 - with USES=fortran,
 - using Mk/bsd.octave.mk which in turn features USES=fortran, and
 - with USES=compiler specifying openmp, nestedfct, c11, c++0x, c++11-lang,
   c++11-lib, c++14-lang, c++17-lang, or gcc-c++11-lib
plus, everything INDEX-11 shows with a dependency on lang/gcc9 now.

Fix Qt5 symbol version scripts to put the catch-all clause first.  When a symbol matches multiple clauses the last one takes precedence.  If the catch-all is last it captures everything.  In the case of Qt5 libraries this caused all symbols to have a Qt_5 label while some should have Qt_5_PRIVATE_API.  This only affects lld because GNU ld always gives the catch-all lowest priority.

Older versions of Qt5Webengine exported some memory allocation symbols from
the bundled Chromium.  Version 5.9 stopped exporting these [1] but the
symbols were kept as weak wrappers for the standard allocation functions to
maintain binary compatibility. [2][3]  The problem is that the call to the
standard function in these weak wrappers is only resolved to the standard
function if there's a call to this standard function in other parts of
Qt5Webengine, because only then is there a non-weak symbol that takes
precedence over the weak one.  If there's no such non-weak symbol the call
in the weak wrapper resolves to the weak wrapper itself creating an infinite
call loop that overflows the stack and causes a crash.  Some of the
allocation functions are variants of C++ new and delete and it probably
depends on the compiler whether these variants are used in other parts of
Qt5Webengine.

Remove the weak wrappers (make them Linux specific).  This isn't binary
compatible but we are already breaking that with the changes to the symbol
versions.

Update Qt5 ports to 5.9.3.

This took quite a lot of time because Qt's own build system underwent
several changes in 5.8.0 that took a while to adapt to.

And, of course, qt5-webengine is a behemoth that we need to patch like crazy
due to its bundling of Chromium. In fact, most of the Chromium patches in
qt5-webengine have been imported with no changes from www/chromium@433510
("www/chromium: update to 56.0.2924.87").

New port: accessibility/qt5-speech

Bigger changes to Qt5 ports we had to make:
- Qt now allows using a configure.json file to define configuration options
  and specify configuration checks that can be done when qmake is invoked.
  However, configure.json checks done in a subdirectory only propagates to
  subdirectories, and checks elsewhere will fail if all .pro files are being
  parsed at once (i.e. qmake -recursive), so several ports had to switch to
  USES=qmake:norecursive along with manual additional qmake invocations in
  subdirectories in order to work. It's been mentioned in a few places such
  as Qt's bug tracker that qmake's recursive mode is pretty much deprecated,
  so we might switch to non-recursive mode by default in the future.

- Uses/qmake.mk: Introduce QMAKE_CONFIGURE_ARGS. qmake now accepts
  arbitrary options such as '-foo' and '-no-bar' at the end of the
  command-line. They can be specified in QMAKE_CONFIGURE_ARGS.

- graphics/qt5-wayland: The port can only be built if graphics/mesa-libs is
  built with the WAYLAND option, so a corresponding option (off by default)
  was added to the port.

- misc/qt5-doc: Switch to a pre-built documentation tarball. The existing
  port was not working with Qt 5.9. Instead of trying to fix it, switch to
  what Gentoo does and fetch a tarball that already contains all
  documentation so that we do not have to build anything at all. The
  tarball's name and location in download.qt.io look a bit weird, but it
  seems to work fine.

- www/qt5-webengine: Use binutils from ports, Chromium's GN build system
  generates a build.ninja that uses ar(1) with the @file syntax that is not
  supported by BSD ar, so we need to use GNU ar from binutils.

- x11-toolkits/qt5-declarative-render2d: This port was merged into the main
  Qt Declarative repository upstream, and into x11-toolkits/qt5-quick in the
  ports tree.

Changes to other ports we had to make:
- biology/ugene: Drop a '#define point "."' that is not present in more
  recent versions of the port. Defining a macro with such a common name
  causes build issues with Qt 5.9, which uses |point| as an argument name in
  methods.

- cad/qelectrotech: Fix plist with Qt 5.9. Directories are no longer
  installed with `cp -f -R', but rather `qmake install qinstall', which does
  not install

    %%DATADIR%%/elements/10_electric/20_manufacturers_articles/bosch_rexroth/.directory

  That's a local file that should not even have been part of the tarball
  anyway.

- chinese/gcin-qt5: Add additional private Qt directories (which should not
  be used in the first place) to get the port to build with Qt 5.9.

- devel/qtcreator: Fix plist with Qt 5.9. Something changed in qdoc and some
  test classes no longer generate documentation files.

- security/keepassx-devel: Import a patch sent upstream almost a year ago to
  fix the build with Qt 5.9.

Thanks to antoine for the exp-run, and tcberner and Laurent Cimon
<laurent@nuxi.ca> for landing changes in our qt-5.9 branch.
