changes after they update their ports tree.

Added files:

Log:
Add an UPDATING file that will be used to document additional steps that
users may need to perform when updating their ports collection. The
intent is similar to the /usr/src/UPDATING file.

Kick it off with a description of how to update past the ruby 1.6->1.8
changeover on i386, cribbed from knu's commit message.
