Refresh mirror list and remove dead mirrors or unofficial ones
While at it reduce the list to a reasonable amount of mirrors
Reference:

The python PEP440 version numbering standard is _mostly_ compatible
with FreeBSD port versioning rules. Exceptions exist, where the
PORTVERSION can be derived from the upstream DISTVERSION
automatically. For example:
PEP440 DISTVERSION: FreeBSD PORTVERSION:
2.3.post1 2.3.p1
Now, this interacts badly with PEP517 build setups. hatchling will
enforce PEP440 complicance, so it isn't practical to modify the ported
code to use exactly the FreeBSD version.
Instead, simply referring to DISTVERSION rather than PORTVERSION will
allow the build process to complete smoothly.
See https://reviews.freebsd.org/D39123 for an example port update
which depends on this change

Recently we discovered a bug with plasma apps parsing non-latin strings when
pure C locale was used at compile stage which leads to save and display
broken strings full of "?" symbols.
Fix it by set a full UTF-8 locale for the build process.

Tuesday, 14 March 2023. Today KDE releases a bugfix update to KDE Plasma
5, versioned 5.27.3.
Plasma 5.27 was released in February 2023 with many feature refinements
and new modules to complete the desktop experience.
This release adds two weeks' worth of new translations and fixes from
KDE's contributors. The bugfixes are typically small but important and
include:
* Dr Konqi: Add emoji picker to mappings.
* Klipper: remove duplicate items when loading from history.
* Powerdevil: Suspend by default on AC profile.
Announcement: https://kde.org/announcements/plasma/5/5.27.3/
Changelog: https://kde.org/announcements/changelogs/plasma/5/5.27.2-5.27.3
Needed for devel/meson-python to function on non-default Python
flavours/distributions, as meson is imported as a module. Existing

Bump portrevision of all dependent ports.
Mark broken math/octave-forge-database, math/octave-forge-mechanics,
math/octave-forge-mpi math/octave-forge-nlwing2,
math/octave-forge-parallel, math/octave-forge-specfun
Set to default off these ports in math/octave-forge.
Clean up indentation in Mk/Uses/octave.mk.
Framework
* Added functions to get detailed info about a producer more directly
(without having to get a frame and get its image in the case of
avformat producer, for example): mlt_producer_probe()
Mlt::Producer::probe()
* Added functions to add normalizer links to chains (based on a
chain_loader.ini configuration data file:
mlt_chain_attach_normalizers()
Mlt::Chain::attach_normalizers()
* Changed locale_t to mlt_locale_t to avoid redefinition on some
systems (e.g. clang/llvm on win32).
* Fixed the value provided with event “consumer-thread-join” to be
mlt_event_data_thread as documented.
* Fixed mlt_image_format_planes() for mlt_image_yuv420p.
Modules
* Added a swresample link to the avformat module.
* Added a resample link to the resample module.
* Fixed compatibility of avformat module with FFmpeg version 6.
* Fixed rotoscoping filter when request image size different than
profile.
* Fixed timeremap link breaking crop filter.
* Fixed audio/video sync in avformat producer when the video start time
is not 0.
* Improved seeking on a WMA audio file in avformat producer.
* Optimization to set AVDISCARD_ALL on disinterested streams in
avformat producer.
* Added separate demuxing thread in avformat producer.
* Added filtergraph property to the avformat producer.
* Fixed filter movit.convert’s CPU image converter in mlt_tractor and
mlt_frame_clone().
* Fixed using movit module with mlt_chain.
* Fixed 10-bit full range YUV color input with Movit.
* Fixed aspect ratio issues in qtblend filter transform.
* Fixed the movit.luma transition.
* Changed the qglsl consumer to use an OpenGL core profile version 3.2
context to make it compatible with recent Movit versions.
* Upgraded glaxnimate git submodule to version 0.5.2.
* Fixed xml producer incorrectly adds a path prefix to a consumer
producer.
* Fixed using opencv.tracker filter with mlt_chain.
* Added interlace-aware chroma conversion from mlt_image_yuv422 to
yuv420p in the avformat consumer.
* Added the speed_map property to the timeremap link.
* Fixed the loader producer not injecting the consumer producer when a
xml producer changes the frame rate.
* Fixed ‘loader’ producer corrupts the profile colorspace and
description when it injects a consumer producer.
* Added a loader-nogl producer to the core module based on loader but
prevents adding movit-based filters.
* Changed count producer to take an optional string argument with the
name of a loader producer.
* Fixed yadif deinterlace not working in a mlt_chain.
* Fixed the bob, weave, greedy, onefield deinterlace filter methods on
x86-64 architecture.
Other
* Fixed SWIG python shadow functions for mlt7.
* Added CMake build option MOD_GLAXNIMATE_QT6.
* Under the hood runs Chromium 87.0.4280.144 with security fixes up to
version 96.0.4664.110 and patches were taken from of www/chromium
87.0.4280.141 (391acded85).
* Prune some unneeded patches (mostly from the headless and unittest
areas) and try to align the unbundling of dependencies similar to
qt6-webengine for consistency.
* Adjust Mk/Uses/qt-dist.mk accordingly as the naming of the distfiles
has changed since Qt 5.15.3.

A collection of code samples and tutorials are provided with Qt to help
new users get started with Qt development. These documents cover a range
of topics, from basic use of widgets to step-by-step tutorials that show
how an application is put together.

Haskell code benefits greatly from splitting functions into distinct ELF
sections and then letting the linker to garbage-collect them.
devel/hs-haskell-language-server port goes from 277MiB to 176MiB in size.
net-p2p/cardano-node ports goes 302MiB -> 76.2MiB

data_files was not initially supported in the framework under the
guise that PyPA through setuptools deprecated the practice. However,
other build backends like flit still support (and advertise as a
"newer" feature) data_files, and certain packages continue to install
operating system-specific files like man pages using Python's
packaging system.
This expands RECORD parsing to account for any data_files beyond
entry_points installed to bin/. It is limited to certain directories
in hier(7) listed under /usr/local to prevent wheels from installing
files to arbitrary locations.
