[Bug 280532] www/forgejo: LTS

I can't speak for other users, but regarding forgejo I'm refugee from
www/gitlab@ce which is maintenance nightmare. Upgrades, or even minor version
updates fail quite often.

Forgejo (currently 7 branch) has all the functionality I need. AFAIK general
purpose of any LTS is to not get too much attention from dev team, while still
getting enough attention from security team (meaning no new features while
resolving stability and security issues).

I wouldn't mind tracking latest and shiniest if forgejo upgrades to major
versions don't introduce any problems. I guess only time will tell.

I'm newbie to porting, I maintain a few simple ports where bumping revisions in
Makefile, `make makesum`-ing and generating new pkg-plist is all it takes.

What do you think of the following: I copy your www/forgejo port from 7.x
times, and maintain it by bumping revisions so you can concentrate on latest
developments. If I run into problems I can't resolve on my own (eg. new minor
version of 7.x does not compile, or it does compile but won't work etc.), I ask
you for help.

Thank you in advance,
