Feature #17778: More *BSD support
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/17778#change-77350

Author: Daniele Sluijters
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: library
Target version: 
Keywords: bsd, operatingsystem, osfamily
Branch: 
Affected Facter version: 


Facter's BSD support is limited.

The operatingsystem fact is usually populated by whatever `uname -s` returns 
but in the case of pfSense for example that's FreeBSD, not pfSense so this 
becomes a bit of a hit and miss.

The osfamily fact is also populated in the same way which accidentally happens 
to be correct in the above example but I'm not sure what would happen with the 
other FreeBSD derivatives for example: PC-BSD, DesktopBSD, GhostBSD, m0n0wall, 
FreeNAS.

Then there's OpenBSD, NetBSD and DragonFly which this should probably also be 
better tested on.
