rG5efd371bba15: packages: Move powerd to its own package

Summary

Nearly everyone wants powerd to manage CPU frequency scaling on real
hardware, even if -utilities isn't installed. Conversely, very small
jails might want -utilities but don't need powerd.

Move it to its own package and add it to the minimal set.

add an UPDATING entry

... although i'm wondering if we should stop doing these after the 15.0 release,
at least for packages which are in set-minimal, since they're quite spammy.

Spammy how? Unlike ports, UPDATING isn't automatically displayed. I imagine that they'd slow way down once we have the deck chairs just so...

well, just reading through UPDATING, a lot of recent entries are about pkgbase. but i suppose it's fine, people can just skip them if they aren't interested.
