multimedia/cheese: bump revision for gnome-desktop 51 ABI (#1302)

Rebuild for the libgnome-desktop-3.so.20 to .21 ABI change in x11/gnome-desktop 51.0 (#1295).\n\nValidation:\n- bmake -V PORTREVISION (1)\n- bmake parses the updated Makefile correctly\n- git diff --check\n\nportlint currently uses base make here and reports an unrelated PORTVERSION parser error. ## Summary by Sourcery Enhancements: - Bump the Cheese port revision to trigger a rebuild against the updated GNOME desktop ABI.

*: fix broken PORTSCOUT limit configurations (#1257)

Audited every `PORTSCOUT` setting in the tree (526 ports) against the parser in `Portscout::API` and the limit checks in `FindNewestFile()`, and fixed the 30 that could never report an update. Each one either failed to parse or excluded the port's own current version, so portscout was silently reporting nothing for them. ### What was checked Validation mirrored portscout's real behaviour rather than the documented syntax: - Tokens must match `^([A-Za-z]+):(.*)$` after `make -V` expansion; recognised keys are `site`, `limit`, `limitw`, `skipv`, `skipb`, `ignore`. - `limit` must be a compilable Perl regex; `limitw` must match `^(\d{1,2}),(even|odd)$`. - For GitHub/GitLab ports, `FindNewestFile()` normalises the tag — …
