packaging changes: PostgresQL 9.5 is no longer supported.
Upstream NEWS:
PostGIS 3.1.0

* Deprecated signatures *
- Function postgis_svn_version() replaced by postgis_lib_revision()
(Sandro Santilli)
- #4214, Deprecated ST_Count(tablename,...), ST_ApproxCount(tablename, ...)
ST_SummaryStats(tablename, ..),

- (GEOS 3.9+) Optional gridSize parameter to ST_Union, ST_UnaryUnion,
ST_Difference, ST_Intersection, ST_SymDifference, ST_Subdivide

- #4801, ST_ClusterKMeans supports weights in POINT[Z]M geometries
(Darafei Praliaskouski)
- #4805, _ST_SortableHash exposed to work around parallel soring performance issue
in Postgres. If your table is huge, use ORDER BY _ST_SortableHash(geom)
instead of ORDER BY geom to make parallel sort faster (Darafei Praliaskouski)
- #4625, Correlation statistics now calculated.
Run ANALYZE for BRIN indexes to start kicking in.
(Darafei Praliaskouski)
- #4698, Add a precision parameter to ST_AsEWKT (Raúl Marín)
* Enhancements *
- #4789, Sped up TopoJSON output for areal TopoGeometry with
many holes (Sandro Santilli)
- #4758, Improved topology noding robustness (Sandro Santilli)
- Make ST_Subdivide interruptable (Sandro Santilli)
- #4660, Changes in double / coordinate printing (Raúl Marín)
- Use the shortest representation (enough to guarantee roundtrip).
- Uses scientific notation for absolute numbers smaller than 1e-8.
The previous behaviour was to output 0 for absolute values smaller than
1e-12 and fixed notation for anything bigger than that.
- Uses scientific notation for absolute numbers greater than 1e+15
(same behaviour).
- The precision parameter now also affects the scientific notation
(before it was fixed [5-8]).
- All output functions now respect the requested precision (without
any limits).

ST_SnapToGrid optimized. (Darafei Praliaskouski)
- #4656, Cast a geojson_text::geometry for implicit GeoJSON ingestion (Raúl Marín)
Packaging changes: make bl3 refer to PGSQL_VERSION, not 12, reverting
an earlier change labeled "revbump" which does not make sense for such
a change.
Upstream changes: bugfixes
pkgsrc changes: Adjust API_DEPENDS to 2.0. I don't have a specific
reason, but the previous 1.4 is so ancient that accepting it defies
the Principle of Least Astonishment.
Note that regression tests crash, but in the same way as 3.0.1.
3.0.1, when committed, passed, and I believe this is about proj.
Upstream changes: Bug fixes
Packaging changes: depend on protobuf-c and json-c

[many more; see NEWS]
pkglint -r --network --only "migrate"
As a side-effect of migrating the homepages, pkglint also fixed a few
indentations in unrelated lines. These and the new homepages have been
checked manually.
(This revbump should not be necessary, because goes's public ABI did
not change. Due to a misfeature/bug in libtool, linking against the
stable geos C API results in a directed NEEDED entry on the unstable
C++ library.)
(Upstream also has news for beta and rc, and it's not clear if those
are additional or folded into the following.)

Currently, this package builds with all versions of postgreqsl in
pkgsrc, and it is likely to do so in the future, so there is no need
for an explicit list.
Add a variable MAJOR, currently 2.4, and instead of open-coding 2.4 in
PLIST, use ${MAJOR}, and teach print-PLIST how to invert that in only
the right places.
No functional change; this just reduces work on updating.
