Add sysvinit_freebsd support to meson.build to enable generating rc.d scripts from templates and installing into the proper /usr/local/etc/rc.d directory. Update meson_options.txt to limit init_system choices to sysvinit_openrc, systemd or sysvinit_freebsd. Also, update tools/build-on-freebsd to use meson build operations. Update tools/read-dependencies and pkg-deps.json for freebsd support.

LGTM, I didn't test it on freebsd vm but I trust you did, thanks!

@aciba90 correct I updated your link as it truncated the trailing 6. The enablement in FreeBSD is done by the command sysrc cloudinit_enable=YES

Just FYI @dermotbradley since you also added sysvinit_openrc. Shouldn't affect Alpine other than the meson_options.txt choices now permit |
