Announcing: port_upgrade

[Scott C. Kennedy]

Well, for me, when I used to do that, I would lose all my variants.
Plus, when a dependency for a package changed significantly, then the
program would terminate or act unexpectedly. For me, a longer compile
time when updating packages to ensure that all my packages are linked to
the most recent version of all of their dependencies is a good
investment of time.
