as firefox needs matching wasi-compiler-rt, embedded llvm in
rust and llvm for building and wasi-compiler-rt installs it's files
in a path depending on it's full distversion, we need to know
llvm/clang's full version. it's not possible to derive that
programatically, as the required llvm version may not be installed
at the time firefox' Makefile is being parsed.

Release Notes (soon):

This firefox release includes a not-yet-released snapshot of dav1d,
which is not fully API-compatible with the released version. Switch
to the bundled dav1d/aom until dav1d released have caught up.
(cherry picked from commit f4c07f1834)
make distclean target will break when lang/go is not installed. This
provides an informational feedback and skips the gomod-clean target if
go executable is not available.

It's well known that LTO provides both performance and size benefits for
binaries.
Add preliminary, opt-in support for global LTO enforcement to ports. Ports that
provide LTO option on their own and the ones that don't work with LTO will need
to set LTO_UNSAFE in the future.

kde@ has been focused recently on reducing the load of "unnecessary"
runtime dependencies, to allow third party distributions to have a
leaner installation.
One part of this effort was to make qt5-testlib a "build only"
dependency.
Unfortunately, parts of qt5-declarative link against testlib (to provide
test functionality for declarative parts).
This lead to an unfortunate loop of pkg-autoremove removing testlib, and
then pkg-update adding it again (as it was an improperly registered
dependency).
This change splits out the "test"-parts into its own port. Thereby
making testlib not even a required build-time dependency for
x11-toolkits/qt5-delcarative.

ncurses from ports and futur ncurses in base differs from current
ncurses in base by the fact it is not providing a giant libncurses.so
but 2 libraries: libtinfo and libncurses, those information often needs
to be reported to the consumer port.
while here remove a now useless test for support of widechar ncurses in
base, all supported version of freebsd have it now.
Since we switched to pkg, NO_PKG_REGISTER was not working anymore.
Since pkg 1.17.2 the pkg register command do support -N option which
allows to bring back NO_PKG_REGISTER.

KDE today announces the release of KDE Frameworks 5.86.0.
KDE Frameworks are 83 addon libraries to Qt which provide a wide variety
of commonly needed functionality in mature, peer reviewed and well
tested libraries with friendly licensing terms. For an introduction see
the KDE Frameworks release announcement.
This release is part of a series of planned monthly releases making
improvements available to developers in a quick and predictable manner.

Plasma Systemstats is a successor to (lib)KSysGuard in the way
that Plasma System Monitor is a successor to KSysGuard. The
background idea is that system statistics collection (resource
usage) should be low-overhead and pluggable and the UI in the
application flexible. KSysGuard achieved that with 2010-era
technologies, but time and technology moves on.
Note, though, that the backend -- the actual system-statistics-
collection -- on FreeBSD is missing collection of network
activity (entirely) and memory use (is wrong). System monitor
is **not yet** a replacement for KSysGuard on FreeBSD, but the
CPU monitoring -- which might be the most important and graphically
appealing bit on a desktop machine -- is much improved.
This commit introduces the new port, adds it to USE_KDE,
and makes it a dependency of system-monitor, to ease the
eventual replacement (once the issues mentioned above are
cleared up) of old by new.
Also reset state on function entry otherwise split_url() cannot
really be called multiple times since there would be garbage values
in the url array from previous calls.
rustc stashes intermediary files in TMPDIR (default /tmp) which
might cause issues for users that for some reason space limit their
/tmp. WRKDIR should have plenty of space.
Other ports that use rustc might be affected too, but set it only
in USES=cargo and lang/rust* ports for now.

This release adds a month's worth of new translations and fixes from
KDE's contributors. The bugfixes are typically small but important and
include:
* KDE GTK Config: Make sure to actually commit GSettings changes.
* KSystemStats: Fix handling of IPV6 addresses. Fixes bug #436296
* [applets/digitalclock] Let long timezones list scroll.
Fixes bug #439147

- while here: reformat & sort the USES/USE_FOO lines consistently
- Add WANT_LAZARUS_DEVEL option if you want built apps using lazarus trunk
version from ports. This variable can be added to /etc/make.conf. Otherwise,
stable version of lazarus will be used.
- WANT_LAZARUS_DEVEL will use editors/lazarus-devel or editors/lazarus-qt5-devel
ports instead of editors/lazarus or lazarus-qt5 ones
it allows users to set their desired compression level when packaging
in make.conf

Keep the new flag though.
This error can occur in some other cases such as building on a
mismatched host kernel+userland. Some further study is needed
and it may be possible to automatically set UNAME_r.
An example of this happening is with recent Poudriere changes:
- Poudriere <= 3.3 used to set UNAME_r in /etc/login.conf's environment
during *jail creation*.
- Poudriere >= 3.4 only sets it in the environment during *jail
runtime*.
Creating a jail with Poudriere 3.4 and then using Poudriere 3.3 on it
would fail to have UNAME_r properly set. It would read OSVERSION from
/usr/include/sys/param.h to find the installed files release. The ports
framework, and builds, need `uname` to be correct for the *jail/chroot*
and not be of the running kernel.
Add a footshoot enabler while here which should not be used for any
reason as it can create packages targetting the release of the running
kernel rather than the chroot/jail's expected version.
