Add freebsd runner

since the freebsd is in a vm it takes a very long time to run. I am thinking of making it a manual trigger

[bynect]

the freebsd runner takes 2.30 minutes on average, compared to the 30 seconds for linux distros...
maybe it's not too much after all

anyway, I adapted the code to work with Freebsd using coreutils. we may want to remove gnu specific stuff and stick to posix for more compatibility but for now this is what I could do

@fwsmit @zappolowski what do you think about this? I think it is a nice addition to check support for bsd. my only concern is the github ci compute times but maybe 2.30 minutes is not too much.

ps: I have no clue why the arch ci is failing but it seems unrelated

Not that knowledgeable on that topic, but the glibc had an update that day. If the base archlinux docker was still containing the old glibc and the debug symbols pulled from debuginfod were the new ones... that sounds like something valgrind could trip over (valgrind not working was the reason for failing).
Should resolve if the docker image contains the new glibc package or the workflow should add commands (pacman -Syu --noconfirm) that should run on the arch distro.

Edit: reference for how it could be done: https://github.com/labwc/labwc/blob/master/.github/workflows/build.yml#L68

thanks for the tip! I updated our images and now it works again 👍🏻
