Pkg 1.3.7 out. Special handling recommended to avoid reinstalls.

Pkg 1.3.7 is now released. The port is updated. pkg.FreeBSD.org packages
are now published with fixed shared libraries.

It was found that 'pkg update -f' may be required as well.

Here are the updated instructions:

- Binary package users should run 'pkg update -f' and 'pkg check -Ba'
after upgrading to pkg-1.3.7 and before updating any other packages.
This avoids needing to reinstall anything not needed due to changed
shared libraries.
   For binary package users:
    # pkg install ports-mgmt/pkg
    # pkg update -f
    # pkg check -Ba
    # pkg upgrade
   For port users:
    # portsnap fetch update
    # make -C /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg build deinstall install clean
    # pkg check -Ba
- People building packages for serving to other systems need to rebuild
  all packages with 1.3.7.
