This commit adds preliminary support for developer driven FreeBSD testing
via the Cirrus-CI cloud continuous integration system.

NOTE: Currently, this does not successfully execute.  See the following
build result:
  https://cirrus-ci.com/task/5626189961756672

Full Logs:
  https://api.cirrus-ci.com/v1/task/5626189961756672/logs/check.log

The tests themselves may need to be run as root.

Sorry, do you mind explaining why this is needed? And should it be cloning to main or to the latest LTS tag? I think I am ignorant of what is required for your build process.

See Cody's comment from last April about unit tests being broken on FreeBSD 13.0 and 14.0. My recollection is that there is no volunteer to resolve these issues currently, which is why we are not targeting unit tests for FreeBSD at the Community Lab - only build tests.

Looks like it makes sense overall, thanks.
