Some sky cultures had been renamed, two new added.
While here, switch to smaller .tar.xz distfile and
make data export to Excel files support optional.
Segmentation Fault occurs if program is executed in a directory without

- Update all the consumers to use USES=tex
- USE_TEX=yes is the old way of writing USES=tex which has been removed
and replaced in all ports
- Almost all of the USE_TEX features remains unchanged
- Some consumers had the same variables defined both in the mk
infrastructure and also in the ports which have been removed from the
ports as those are redundant.
In case any of the consumers are failing to build please make sure that
the nexessary USES=tex is there. Unlike previous USE_TEX=yes will no
longer load the required VARS for tex and related dependencies.

During an exp-run for llvm 15 (see bug 265425), it turned out that
astro/cfitsio failed to build with clang 15:
drvrnet.c:3887:23: warning: call to undeclared function 'gethostbyname'; ISO C99 and later do not support implicit function declarations [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
hostent = gethostbyname(localhost);
^
drvrnet.c:3887:21: error: incompatible integer to pointer conversion assigning to 'struct hostent *' from 'int' [-Wint-conversion]
hostent = gethostbyname(localhost);
^ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 warning and 1 error generated.
This is because the configure script defines _XOPEN_SOURCE=700, for
unclear reasons, and this hides the gethostbyname() declaration in
/usr/include/netdb.h. Fix it by removing the line that adds the define.

Over 120 individual programs plus dozens of programmer libraries and

Today they all get new bugfix source releases with updated translations,
including:
* dolphin: Fix opening unnecessary new windows (Commit, fixes bug
#440663)
* konsole: Fix a crash when extending the selection (Commit, fixes
bug #398320 and bug #458822)
Announcement: https://kde.org/announcements/gear/22.08.3/
Changelog: https://kde.org/announcements/changelogs/gear/22.08.3/
It's unfortunate transition time when they cannot be updated separately,
not at least without some ugly patching.
Make Stellarium use static release tarball instead of the generated by
GitHub one. While currently it does not win us much, next version will
be additionally offering smaller .tar.xz distfile which we'll switch to
more easily.
Enforce Qt5 build for now. While Stellarium and its dependencies are
Qt6-ready, providing correct and coherent flavors for all of them is
too much work for little gain. Everyone should be using Qt5 anyways.
