We were not setting the flag to select the GNUstep ABI, so were defaulting to
using the GCC-compatible version, which was likely to trigger a lot of subtle
bugs. This was noticed when C++ exceptions thrown through Objective-C stack
frames caused segfaults.
Update the default Objective-C compiler.
Fix various build failures in GNUstep ports from newer versions of the GNUstep
core libraries and from changes to GNUstep Make.
Update various ports that use GNUstep and bump the portrevision of the ones
that haven't had a new release.
Some ports were already installing in the System domain, for these just remove the Makefile lines explicitly specifying the install domain.
The rest are installed in the Local domain, remove any overrides, update their pkg-plists and any explicit paths in the Makefiles and then bump port revision.

Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D2977
Simplify gnustep ports
Hook into the regular ports framework:
- LIB_DEPENDS for library dependencies
- Use regular USE_LDCONFIG
Reuse USES=objc (automatic)
USE_GNUSTEP is now a macro to set the dependencies and build feature needed.
Accepted arguments: back base build gui
Merge deskutils/preferencepanes into deskutils/systempreferences
- Mk/bsd.database.mk rewrite, new default to db5.
- db6 is eligible by default only if installed on the system.
- Bump PORTREVISION of all ports that directly depend on BerkeleyDB or
where USE_BDB is found in the port's directory
- Patch a few ports such that they will pick up or work with newer
versions.
- Add UPDATING entry
- Drive-by format fix for pks
- Drop BerkeleyDB option from mail/popular for now, requires more work.
- Exp-run logs linked from the PR below.
- Ports that do not build (IGNORE, BROKEN, etc.) have pro-forma changes
for new Berkeley DB, but are untested.
NOTE: please read UPDATING and the Wiki page before proceeding!

PR: 192690
Approved by: portmgr (implicit, PORTREVISION bump on unstaged ports)
The affected ports are the ones with gettext as a run-dependency
according to ports/INDEX-7 (5007 of them) and the ones with USE_GETTEXT
in Makefile (29 of them).

Berkeley DB for the GNUstep and Mac OS X environment written in
Objective-C language. It is based on the C API of
Berkeley DB and offers an object oriented interface which relies on
classes and mechanisms offered by the Foundation library.
In its present state BDB just offers a reduced set of functionality of
Berkeley DB.
