I noticed that ports that use ‘platform { darwin any }’ get reinstalled during this process, and ‘port outdated’ shows ‘(platform darwin 22 ≠ 23)’. Does MacPorts really need to reinstall these ports if they’re marked as being suitable for any Darwin version?

The platform isn't recorded in the registry as "darwin any" currently 
(on the todo list since the platforms changes were made). I had hoped 
the installed archive might be reused in this case, but it looks like we 
set force_archive_refresh for platform mismatches just like if the 
--force option was used for an upgrade.
