ports: Update ports current status
- Use «dead» uniformly instead of «discontinued». - Use «ports» instead of in progress to make it more clear about the port current location. - Move mipsel to other ports and mark it «dead». - Move riscv64 to official ports and mark it «testing». - Mark powerpcspe as «dead». - Mark alpha, hppa, ia64 and powerpc as «ports». - Add new Superseded by column and use that instead of a «replaced by <port>» status which is now just «dead».
