           Summary: Intel oneAPI tbb - Migrating from devel/tbb to

Intel oneAPI tbb (formerly known as Intel tbb) 2021.1 has been released and has
deprecated several interfaces over tbb 2020, see:

and:

As a consequence, updating devel/tbb in-place is not possible because most of
our dependent ports break.

Instead, we will introduce a new port called devel/onetbb (the new name of the
library) that will hold new versions of the library. Find attached to that PR
expected patches for devel/tbb and devel/onetbb.

The old port, devel/tbb will be kept for a certain amount of time and removed
in the future.

We will have to migrate and patch each dependent port before committing the
changes alltogether. That PR will help synchronize the migration by attaching a
blocking PR for each failing port.
