[Bug 1900753] [NEW] fix regression: remove dependency on dmidecode

 

Public bug reported:

When we extended ds-identify to use dmidecode, we made it x86-only,
which is the platforms that dmidecode supports (on FreeBSD):
https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-
ports/commit/ea408d31b8d9d3b3bac932f8c351d2e883070e6b

it would be good if we could "fix" that, by removing our dependency on
dmidecode, and instead use kenv(1)
https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?kenv
