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.

ports-mgmt/ports-tools: update to 1.8

From the ChangeLog: https://github.com/ppekala/ports-tools/releases/tag/1.8

* pfind:

    * add -d option for searching deleted ports
    * support searching for slaves in other categories then master port
    * add information about already installed packages in search results

* upgrade-ports:

    * don't use full dependencies list while sorting, this prevents out of
      memory problems
    * while sorting large list of ports
    * fix uprade of security/sudo package when using sudo for upgrade
      process (non-root user)
    * inform user about lenghty backups
    * don't attempt to big version upgrade of perl5, needs manual intervention
    * make required by list more compact in need to be installed summary

and many small fixes.

process as problem free as possible. This includes showing new UPDATING
entries since last upgrade, ports origin move tracking, simple conflict

Before any change is made user is presented with summary of changes
intended similiar to pkg upgrade.
