The WebAssembly community have reclaimed wasm32-wasi, without suffix,
for a future WASI 1.0 standard. The first version of WASI, 0.1, is
now wasm32-wasip1 in triple form, WASI 0.2 is wasm32-wasip2, etc.
Starting LLVM 22 the non-suffixed form is deprecated, aligning with
Rust and Go:

https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/165344
https://blog.rust-lang.org/2024/04/09/updates-to-rusts-wasi-targets/

The Mozilla build system's WASI checks always pass -Werror so
configure fails when the non-suffixed target/triple is passed using
LLVM 22:

Mozilla bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2023597

Bump all WASI ports for the new triple. Adjust consumers accordingly
but do not bump, since non-suffixed and p1 are identical as a
transition measure.

Incorrect branch.

This reverts commit 85b72a5454c5bdcc850e153b66fdaa4e83e84f3d.

Flavorization of the devel/wasi-libc was not MFH.

This reverts commit 0c538aad8a8708a074157b767459360aa09398f0.

PR:		282516

Changes:	https://chromium.googlesource.com/webm/libvpx/+log/v1.14.1..v1.15.0
Reported by:	Repology

devel/wasi-libc is now flavourised per supported LLVM version. Each
flavour includes/copies the corresponding clang's stdarg.h and
stddef.h instead of simply using the latest clang release.

Technically upstream dropped support for LLVM < 18, but the commit
doing so admittedly operated under an uncertain assumption. LLVM
17 is still supported in these ports for the benefit of Rust and
gecko@ ports, which specify LLVM 17 minimum, and to facilitate LTO
with that version. LLVM 19 is also supported in this version, with
the corresponding ports to be committed separately.

Bump PORTREVISION of consumers

PR:		281300

Update 6.0.18 → 6.0.19 are trivial - just change version.

Improve port:
 - Make Makefile more look like www/librewolf/Makefile and
   www/firefox-esr/Makefile
 - Remove doubles of USE_GECKO and BUILD_DEPENDS+=devel/wasi-*
 - Fix warnings from portclippy

PR:	278672

- Old style system (pre-Stylo) is no longer maintained for vulnerabilities
- FreeBSD lacks process sandboxing to protect against any undisclosed vulnerabilities
- Backporting from current Firefox releases to 56.* codebase is non-trivial
- During 57-60 timeframe many compatibility bridges have been burnt, so the
  next release based on ESR60 is likely to require porting extensions to it
- www/firefox-esr can be built with MOZ_EXPORT+=MOZ_ALLOW_LEGACY_EXTENSIONS=1
  in Makefile.local which would make it act similar to Nightly or Waterfox 60.*
- www/firefox privacy can be enhanced via about:config, for anything more
  porting Tor Browser would be a better option

- Force rebuild all consumers as standard library is statically linked

Subversion doesn't allow mixed line endings when svn:eol-style
property is set. files/patch-bug1402766 tries to create a new test
file, so simply strip carriage-return from lines which is what
actually happens on checkout. Originally, the file landed via
git-svn which doesn't appear to run sanity checks on dcommit.
