Port searching tool that supports search by packing list files

Portsearch allows searching for ports that install some file, like ``find /usr/ports -name pkg-plist |xargs grep pattern’’ but honoring PLIST_FILES|DIRS and FOOBAR variables. It also supports searching for ports by name, key name, comment or dependencies, path, info comment, maintainer, category, fetch, extract, patch, build and run dependencies and www site.
