Public bug reported:

Following https://github.com/canonical/cloud-init/pull/617
i tried to replicate this on my laptop.

In a FreeBSD 12, there is no `blkid`. That means that the NoCloud seed image, which was provided as iso9660 formatted disk wasn't found.
The equivalent tool on FreeBSD to find disks would be `geom`

```
meena@fbsd12-1 /u/h/meena> geom label status -a
          Name  Status  Components
  gpt/gptboot0     N/A  vtbd1p1
     gpt/swap0     N/A  vtbd1p2
iso9660/cidata     N/A  vtbd2
```

and here, in -s for script-friendly output:

```
meena@fbsd12-1 /u/h/meena> geom label status -as
  gpt/gptboot0  N/A  vtbd1p1
     gpt/swap0  N/A  vtbd1p2
iso9660/cidata  N/A  vtbd2
```

where we have type/label followed by status and and then device name (a
partition or slice)

We should change read_fs_info() to call a `blkid` or `geom` parser
function based on which OS we're on.
