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.

multimedia/w_scan2: add working fork of expiring multimedia/w_scan

w_scan2 is a small channel scan tool which generates ATSC, DVB-C,
DVB-S/S2 and DVB-T/T2 channels.conf files.

It's based on the old "scan" tool from linuxtv-dvb-apps-1.1.0. The
differences are:
* no initial tuning data needed, because scanning without this data
  is exactly what a scan tool like this should do.
* it detects automatically which DVB/ATSC card to use.
* much more output formats, interfacing to other dtv software.

w_scan2 is a fork of the original w_scan from
https://www.gen2vdr.de/wirbel/w_scan/index2.html

Main changes from w_scan to w_scan2:
* keep duplicate transponders by default because a stronger transponder
  with the same ID might have a higher frequency and be discarded simply
  because it's scanned later. Also don't replace the current transponder
  with an advertised one by default. The latter may have a lower signal
  strength. More details here:
  https://stefantalpalaru.wordpress.com/2016/02/04/scan-all-the-things/
  The old behaviour can be enabled with -d (--delete-duplicate-transponders).
* re-enable VHF band III in Europe
