Drop FreeBSD 10.3 support

[jbeich]

Summary

10.3 reaches EOL on 2018-04-30. After that maintainers are free to remove 10.3 support in their ports. To warn users let's bump required version and maybe clean up the tree in a single atomic commit.

The next package cluster build starts on 2018-05-01 01:00 UTC, anyway.

Once the official mail that FreeBSD 10.3 is no longer supported has been sent out.

math/SoPlex/Makefile has the condition <11, and there is still 10.4 that is supported until October 31, 2018. So should such .ifs be kept?

FreeBSD 10.4 does support __cxa_thread_atexit() which is required by C++11 thread_local. See rS304527 or build log.

Okay then.

• Clean up in more ports

Package build for 10.4 i386/amd64 has started ~13 hours ago. Once it finishes (~30 hours more) 10.3 packages would disappear unless portmgr intervenes to delay until the announcement is made. Without automation ports may accidentally break on 10.3.

• Cleanup emulators/linux_base-c{6,7}

This can be removed together. Thanks!

• www/nghttp2: drop no longer necessary .include

Ok for linux_base. I probably added the comment thinking 10.3 EoL would also be 10 EoL though.

There are commands in devel/dbus/pkg-plist and devel/dbus/files/dbus.in that can be removed as well.

Thanks for review but I'm dropping changes to emulators/linux_base*. The scope here is limited to 10.3 support.

[jbeich]

portmgr, maybe this should land now, so you can point (via the announcement) at a particular commit where things will start breaking for 10.3 users.

We can drop this line too and rename extra-patch-libc++-new to patch-tools_gn_bootstrap_bootstrap.py

Fine for the LLVM ports.

rP468843, rP469291, rP469292, rP469293 landed but 10.3 EOL has yet to be announced. EOL dates are set by secteam but the (generic) support in ports/ is maintained by portmgr. Can you document if any EOL-extending policies exist or why the support for FreeBSD releases cannot removed immediately after EOL? Stop hiding behind secteam.

This was supposed to be an atomic change, easy to revert by users stuck on 10.3 for any reson.

Nobody from portmgr objected, so it is fine to commit. Traditionally an EOL would be sent out, but perhaps that stopped for some reason.

It's worth noting that 10.3 is not listed on the supported releases page so e-mail or no e-mail it's not supported.
