Over 120 individual programs plus dozens of programmer libraries and
feature plugins are released simultaneously as part of KDE Gear.
Today they all get new bugfix source releases with updated translations.
Full changelog:

Fix conflicts entries based on a script that searches for duplicate
files installed by several ports.
Some patters seem to make ports conflict with themselves, but this is
actually not the case due to the check-*-conflicts logic implemented
in bsd.port.mk, which excludes self-conflicts.
PHP based ports have been ignored in this commit as requested by the
committers currently working on the php-8.1 import.

There have been lots of missing CONFLICTS_INSTALL entries, either
because conflicting ports were added without updating existing ports,
due to name changes of generated packages, due to mis-understanding
the format and semantics of the conflicts entries, or just due to
typoes in package names.
This patch is the result of a comparison of all files contained in
the official packages with each other. This comparison was based on
packages built with default options and may therefore have missed
further conflicts with optionally installed files.
Where possible, version numbers in conflicts entries have been
generalized, some times taking advantage of the fact that a port
cannot conflict with itself (due to logic in bsd.port.mk that
supresses the pattern match result in that case).
A few ports that set the conflicts variables depending on complex
conditions (e.g. port options), have been left unmodified, despite
probably containing outdated package names.
These changes should only affect the installation of locally built
ports, not the package building with poudriere. They should give an
early indication of the install conflict in cases where currently
the pkg command aborts an installation when it detects that an
existing file would be overwritten,

Distro and app store packagers should update their application packages.
Changelog:
https://kde.org/announcements/changelogs/gear/21.12.1/
2022-01-01 astro/google-earth: Needs newer version to connect to server
2022-01-01 net/tramp: Not updated in 5 years and now part of Emacs
2022-01-01 archivers/p7zip-codec-rar: Unmaintained for years and has known vulnerabilities
Disable OnlineQueries plugin because it pulls in Qt's WebEngine via
autodetection and there is no standard way to disable it right now.
While here, hook the tests to our framework.
In da36e63724 a dependency on qt5-declarative was made
available in kf5-kconfig. This leads to the generation of
further desktop files in some of the Gear ports.
KDE Gear 21.12 has landed and comes with a massive number of updates and
new versions of applications and libraries. Literally, dozens of classic
KDE everyday tools and the specialised sophisticated apps you use to
work, be creative and play, are getting refreshers with design
improvements, new features and performance and stability enhancements.

Qt testlib was implicitly a dependency for the build (tests are
mandatory), not listed in the port. Dropping testlib from quazip
changed the dependency tree.
Not bumping PORTREVISION, because the after the previous bump
it couldn't have built.

Release notes are here:
https://github.com/stachenov/quazip/releases/tag/v1.2
There are a handful of internal changes that don't affect us
(allowing QtZip, for instance) or don't show up in our use of
quazip (-lz in pkgconfig file). There's one relevant change
to close() that **might** affect consumers, but then I'd expect
bug reports from the consumers about failures on load/save.
While here, move the libraries needed only for testing to _build.
Bumping PORTREVISION of consumers.
