radarr, sonarr, lidarr and prowlarr read package info from a file package_info.
bazarr has this functionality as well, and this patch implements this in the
FreeBSD package. This info is shown in the status page, and helps with support
questions.

There are changes coming with the move from Mono to .NET and there is a
group of people more involved than me who can test and update the port
in a timely manner. I shouldn't be a blocker during this transitional
phase.
This release is the first to be be built with CoreCLR/.NET which is
superceding the Mono project and future versions (4.x)
of Radarr will only work with the .NET language implementation.
Previously we used binary builds of Radarr and the Mono runtime would
be used to execute the binary. The new .NET implementation doesn't
require a runtime as the compiled binary is natively executable.
Compiling Radarr with Mono was difficult in the past so we shipped the
binary and the Mono runtime, but we expect in the future we will be able
to compile Radarr and other similar apps directly with a FreeBSD
supported release of .NET.
I am also releasing myself as maintainer as we have several suitable and
motivated people keeping up with these latest developments and I don't
want to continue to block progress.

There have been lots of missing CONFLICTS_INSTALL entries, either
because conflicting ports were added without updating existing ports,
due to name changes of generated packages, due to mis-understanding
the format and semantics of the conflicts entries, or just due to
typoes in package names.
This patch is the result of a comparison of all files contained in
the official packages with each other. This comparison was based on
packages built with default options and may therefore have missed
further conflicts with optionally installed files.
Where possible, version numbers in conflicts entries have been
generalized, some times taking advantage of the fact that a port
cannot conflict with itself (due to logic in bsd.port.mk that
supresses the pattern match result in that case).
A few ports that set the conflicts variables depending on complex
conditions (e.g. port options), have been left unmodified, despite
probably containing outdated package names.
These changes should only affect the installation of locally built
ports, not the package building with poudriere. They should give an
early indication of the install conflict in cases where currently
the pkg command aborts an installation when it detects that an
existing file would be overwritten,
