Log Message:
net/syncthing: Soften upgrade version language

The basic intent remains: if there is a protocol break we have to
coordinate with f-droid.  However, syncthing seems to have matured to
the point where protocol breaks no longer happen.

+# Therefore, pkgsrc will update to a new syncthing version
+# (e.g. 0.14.x vs 1.0.x) if either there is no protocol break, or when

+# Updates that could possibly break protocol compatibility with the

 # Note that the android versioning is disconnected from syncthing versioning;
