general-concepts/ebuild-revisions: add 'updating USE flag defaults' in dep as revbump reason
Without revision bumping in cases where we change USE dep defaults in a
dependency, the package manager will refuse an upgrade because newer
versions of the dependency will not satisfy the requirements
in the package.
Closes: https://github.com/gentoo/devmanual/pull/232
