RE: pkg upgrade with inverting match? (proposal)

Added my proposal for additional pkg(8) aliases here:
- https://github.com/freebsd/pkg/issues/2626

In short:

```
  % grep -E 'FreeBSD-(p|b)' /usr/local/etc/pkg.conf
    upgrade-packages = "upgrade -r FreeBSD-ports -r FreeBSD-ports-kmods";
    upg-pkgs         = "upgrade -r FreeBSD-ports -r FreeBSD-ports-kmods";
    upgrade-base     = "upgrade -r FreeBSD-base";
    upg-base         = "upgrade -r FreeBSD-base";
```

So now one can:

# pkg upgrade-packages

To only upgrade pkg(8) 3rd party packages w/o touching PKGBASE Base System.

... and with that:

# pkg upgrade-base

To only upgrade PKGBASE Base System and do not mess with 3rd party software.

Hope that helps.
